As the others have explained - yes it is possible and there might be 
security aspects.

However, the main problem will most likely be performance. Usually the 
access over the Internet is much slower than on a LAN. When you run a 
Paradox application it will often drag the complete table over the Lan 
(queries for example). If the users are accessing the server via regular
DSL 
connection it will be very, very slow.

If you chose a Terminal Service/Remote Desktop solution you will have much

better performance (usually) as only the screen is updated over the WAN,
but 
there will most likely be some sort of delay which can be a problem in a
app 
with heavy input of data.

There are many different ways to approach your problem and depending on
what 
exactly you wish to accomplish the answer might be different. For example,

is the Internet access going to be a "full app" or is it enough with a 
"read-only" version? How many users? Etc.
