If I interpret your question correctly, you can force a Time Machine
backup to occur when you are logged into your Mac from a remote
system, using the command:

/System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Resources/backupd-helper  &

(You can also enter this command in the Terminal application.)

(The "&" at the end allows the command to execute in background mode,
so you can do other things while it is working.)
