Not arbitrarily, no. 

For instance, with iCloud Photos you can store more data in your iCloud
account than will fit on a given device. You can enabled Optimized
Storage to make more space available on your device by storing
low-resolution copies of the remaining photos on it, where
full-resolution photos are downloaded as needed. 

But you can't upload 500 GB of photos to iCloud and not have them on any
of your devices because iCloud isn't an alternate generic cloud storage
solution you can use in that manner. And that's because it's primary
purpose is data synchronization between all of your devices.
