Eclipse from remote files/folders on amazon server

Question

I have a VM from amazon. On that VM I have eclipse installed in which a web application is configured. Currently I am working in this way

1) Login to my VM
2) Open Eclipse
3) Run the server
4) Edit/Update code (that is very slow via Remote Desktop)

I want to edit/update code from my machine and when clicking save it should update my code that that eclipse which is on VM.

Is it possible? If yes how can I do that?
