Not through Hyper Terminal you can, you would need to setup on one computer a dial-up server and the computer would need to connect to it using dial-up networking. I would just use PcAnyWhere to do the job.

If I remember correctly, and it's been well over 5 years since I've done a dialup connection like this, you can connect directly using dialup networking and access the remote computer using your windows exploer to transfer files. You probably have to create a user account on the target PC for the remote user and add that user to the shares you wish them to access first.
