Access a database on another server? Is it possible?

In the $db_url can you specify a separate server IP address to access a database that isn't the 'localhost'
Example: $db_url = 'mysqli://username:password@IPAddressORwebaddress/database';
Let me know any solutions/ ideas,
Cheers!

I believe the answer to this is yes, if the database allows remote connections.
ex: if trying to connect drupal to a database server on a separate host.
Am I right about the syntax?
