That isn't possible. You need to grant the access using that file.

Can you clarify what you are really asking? The "internet" is not the "web".

Are you asking if people can run desktop applications that connect directly
to your database server from anywhere? If so, the abswer is that it's
possible, but you probably don't really want to do that.

If you are asking if you can have people run an application using a web browser
where the application runs on a server you control, that is also possible and
is generally a better way to do things.
