I'd like to boot a PC with a local DHCP server but with a PXE config
script that has been stored on a webserver. Exactly like it has been
described here: http://etherboot.org/wiki/appnotes/autobootchainurl

Is this still the way to go or is this deprecated and can be performed
with scripting only?

It's no longer necessary.  You can use an embedded script containing just:

  #!ipxe
  dhcp
  chain url://for.your/boot/script.ipxe

You'll need to upgrade from gPXE (which has been unmaintained for a couple of years now, and doesn't have full scripting capability) to iPXE.
