Yes they do, but not out of the box. You can easily create a custom DataProvider that achieves this:

private class UrlDataProvider(private val url: String) : InputStreamDataProvider() {

    private val httpUrl = URL(url)

    override fun getSize(): Long {
        var connection: HttpURLConnection? = null
        return try {
            connection = httpUrl.openConnection() as HttpURLConnection
            connection.requestMethod = "HEAD"
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.N)
                connection.contentLength.toLong()
            else
                connection.contentLengthLong
        } catch (t: Throwable) {
            E(t)
            -1L
        } finally {
            connection?.disconnect()
        }
    }

    override fun getUid() = url

    override fun getTitle() = File(url).name.nullIfEmpty

    override fun openInputStream(): InputStream = httpUrl.openStream()
}

Keep in mind annotation and form filling won't work properly in this case.
