Well, the intermediate and thumbnail files are all stored within the same directory as your 'large' files. If you are the owner of both these servers and bandwidth is not an issue, you could set up NFS and link the albums directory from one server to another.

Note: Everytime an image is served it will be sent from the server hosting the files to the other running coppermine before being served to the client web-browser. This would only be feasible if both servers are on the same local network since this would clog up your available aggragate bandwidth. You are essentually doubling your bandwidth usage for every image served.

Bottom Line: There are ways to do it; however, it's a real pain in the butt.
Recommendation: Get a new web-host that offers what you need on one server.
