Yes it's possible (almost every thing is possible in puredata :) )
But in order to work with online video or streming video online and work
together with other peole you need to compile a couple of externals
(plugins). That's could be hard depending on your *nix knowledge.
FOr example you can get mpeg or flash online video compiling gem with some
no default flag. Or you can compile and use gstreamer pd porting from
IOhane Zmoeling at iem.
Or you can use python or lua to get internet data also.
