Answer Wiki:
Yes is is possible via a linked server. Use the UI to setup a linked server between the two servers. The domains do not need to be trusted, you just need to know the IP of the remote machine, and have a hole in the firewall to connect to the SQL Server on the remote machine. Then use the full four part name to access data across the linked server. <pre>SELECT * FROM [RemoteServer].YourDatabase.dbo.YourTable</pre>
