Whilst people do it successfully, it's probably a bad idea to have a git repo on Dropbox (corruption could occur if it gets modified from several machines). You'd have to clone it from the file system though: Pkg.clone("/path/to/drobox-folder/repo"). Cloning over https means that there needs to be a git-server at the other end (I think), which dropbox is not.
But why not use one of the git hosting sites? Gitlab https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-com/ and bitbucket have free private repos, if that is your concern. Much better and safer.
