scp user1 "at" computer1:file1 user2 "at" computer2:file2 user3 "at" computer3:dir

That would copy both file1 and file2 on two different machines with two 
different users to a certain directory in the account of a third user on a 
third computer.  Of course you have to have all three passwords and you 
have to have ssh installed on all three machines.

I do think the question was about transfering a file between VNC server 
and client, which can be done with Enterprise edition or with UltraVNC and 
maybe a few others.
