this is not a question of owncloud which is passive in this construction. It 
is a question of the webserver you use to run owncloud and of the client 
implementation.

Just give it a try ! 
If you have something like Apache as a web server the syntax should be 
something like this: 
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/files/webdav.php http://domain.com/storage [L,P,QSA]
You will need apaches rewrite and the proxy http module for this to work.
