No, for store path, 

Your Windows/Linux Admin must configure Shared Drive Properly on the SAS Server and it should be accessible by the user which you're using, in that way only, you can save the Stored Process Code on Shared Drive.

You cannot save the Stored Process in Physical path, But you can save the Source file of the stored process on Physical Path of the SAS Server,

About your question, If you can configure Share Drive directly on the SAS Server and you want to store Source file of the SAS Stored Process, you can do it,

 

Please refer following SAS Paper for more info:

You can only use directories that are accessible on the SAS server. To use a network share, it has to be mounted on the SAS server.
