Sure
Linux
mplayer
as in

mplayer -dumpstream my.avi http://xxxx/yyy.avi

Then play it with
mplayer my.avi

Of cause you can also simply do:
wget http://xxxx/yyy.avi

Quicktime may be a bit more involved, you could use
'view source' in the browser to see what the link is,
often it is not even quicktime, but simply mpeg.
May or may not work though.

For MS widows I dunno ;-)
