Is it possible to have "Document" or "Collection" located in more than one location into the base ? For example, can i have "Document" or "Collection" linked to more than one folder ? From what i understand it is not possible.

What you look for is called a "Proxy". See NXDOC/Repository+Concepts.

A proxy is very much like a symbolic link on an Unix-like OS: a proxy points to a document and will look like a document from the user point of view:

The proxy will have the same metadata as the target document, The proxy will hold the same files as the target documents (since file is a special kind of metadata).

A proxy can point to a live document or to a version (check in archived version).

Proxies are used to be able to see the same document from several places without having to duplicate any data.

(...)

If a proxy can not hold metadata, it can hold security descriptors (ACP/ACL). So a user may be able to see one proxy and not an other.
