I think you would just need to create a procedure on your snapshot sites that call "dbms_mview.refresh" and then call that procedure you created from where ever u want..

The use of scheduled (automatic) refreshes (and even refresh groups) is optional, so yes you should be able to do what you want. Simply don't schedule any refreshes at the snapshot sites, and then execute DBMS_REFRESH.REFRESH from wherever you want on your network, whenever you want.
