Sure. But you need to split the database into a front-end/back-end
structure. The BE has all of the tables, but nothing else. The FE has all of
the queries, forms, reports & modules, and *links to* the tables in the BE.
There is a single copy of the BE, at the central location. Each user must
have their own copy of the FE. This is the recommended configuration for
achieving reliable operation in a multiuser situation. So you need to
read-up on the FE/BE thing, before you go mch further.
