Well, I'll give it another try. The answer is Yes and No.

Yes: you can replicate databases. You set up one database as a
master and any number of other as slaves. These slaves may reside
on the same machine or on any number of other machines. It is a
one-way communication. The master is used to change data, the
slaves to read data only. Very clean concept, seems to work well,
although I didn't try it personally yet.

No: as far as I understand your question, you want to synchronize
data between your local machine and the webserver in a two way
process. This is something I do regularly for some reason, i.e.
users insert/delete/update the web database, I
insert/delete/update some data locally for testing and later
addition to the web. I don't see any way to automate such a two
way communication, and it is certainly not possible with the
replication mechanisms at hand.
