It seems this is not possible, at least not like remote editing in VSCode. It seems WebStorm only supports having a local copy of all the files and then synchronising them over SFTP and SSH to run remote commands. Sounds a little inconvenient.

There is always sshfs. When I was stuck with Windows only for a short while, I used it for changing files on a dev vm I had running on my home server. It was the easiest method without having to change the base image (adding unnecessary services) since it was the same one we'd deploy to various systems. Worked just as well as on Linux.
