Can a laptop be connected as an external drive?

Question

Is there a way to connect usb to usb? To mount a partition or image to a port directly from the system on a laptop, connect it to the client and not worry about flash drives and disks. Perhaps you need to dig into android systems that at least show their fs when connected?
