Absolutely!  Run something like the following on your local system (use
cygwin on a windows box)

ssh -L 80:<remote IP or domain>:80 <remote system> -l <remote-user-name>

This will connect your local port 80 to port 80 on <remote IP or domain> via
an ssh connection to <remote system>.

To access the remote website, just go to http://localhost , or
http://127.0.0.1
