If I understand you correctly, then the answer is no. If the application
is located on the server, there is no way it can access your local PC
database unless you are also running Firbird server, not embedded. The
embedded client should not be on the server at all, only on a client
machine, if you want to use it to access a server like a normal TCP client.

You must run the application locally to access local databases using
embedded.
