“Yes, but”:
You can keep the connection between the client and server live; but this can take significantly more server resources.

You can have the client register an IP address which the server can contact, but you will run into a huge amount of trouble with client-side firewalls.
Or you can just do what most services do, and have the client poll the server occasionally.
