Yes, 

It is not too hard although it will take some work.

Below is a good description of what needs to be done.
The other thing you will need to do is setup an SSH server that can forward
tunnels or setup an ssh server on the machine you want to map from.

BTW, the explanation above uses PuTTY. This is a excellent windows program.
You can find it by going to http://startputty.com

Or the full software can be downloaded from:

My "Foundation" verse:
Isa 54:17  No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; 
and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou 
shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, 
and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
