Can you compile a program via the internet?

[Bazoukas]

Here is an example.

 You run Linux and use Apache.
You want to do a presentation, and you connect to your server.
   You have in your terminal a piece of code you want to run and you want to compile it through  your servers compiler.

  The terminal is a Windows 2000 box.
Can you do it?

The easiest way would be to run a telnet or ssh server on your linux box. Then you can do (via the telnet/ssh client on the windows machine) everything you would be able to do if you were sitting in front of the linux server.
