Are you asking if you can play it head to head over TCP/IP, rather than by sending files back and forth as PBEM? If so, then no, it is not possible.

There is ARES, that makes the transfer of PBEM files a lot easier; have you checked it out?

The utility comes in 2 flavors, one to be the server, one to be a client and uses TCP/IP for connection (and a bit of FTP protocol too). It is provided for free for all AGE games.
It has been made by Yoann, aka Celtic.
