No it is not possible from that query window unless you use linked servers.

Take a look at: http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/ksonti/anintroductiontolinkedservers.asp

|||If the servers are part of a replicated topology you will have to set the server option for data access to true,

is sp_serveroption 'ServerIWishToQuery','Data Access','True'

and then

select * from ServerIWishToQuery.Database.dbo.TableName|||Thank u Hilary...

It was really helpful...

as u said i executed

exec sys.sp_serveroption [192.168.2.20],'data access','true'

It is Giving this type of error ...

Msg 15015, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_serveroption, Line 101
The server '192.168.2.20' does not exist. Use sp_helpserver to show available servers.

I think we have to link the servers ..

can u please guide me how to do it.......
