Basically you're answer is no.
You can use the concept of Smart stubs i.e a specical proxy object which
remembers the values/last values of the properties, which can save on
network traffic.
Some languages allow for objects to be transported - but plain old
Delphi/C++ don't. This opens a real can of worms if you attempt to do this.
