I disagree- If I try to open a zip file on a remote PC across homework, the zip is copied to a temp location on my PC & processed here.
a typical network configuration only will give you read access to the remote PC, a lax one may give you read/write file access but only a very unsafe one it will allow you to execute processes on the remote PC ( as is needed for an unzip) That would be horribly dangerous
so I don't believe you can create a setup where a remote PC can be told to unzip an epub without also opening a door for possible malicious .exe operations.

but hey, tell me there's a safe workaround if there is one...
