Using Azure Service Fabric Reliable Actors across different systems

When using Service Fabric Reliable Actors, is it possible for an actor client in one system (for example, on a local deployment) to communicate with an actor server in a different system (for example, on an Azure cloud deployment)? If so, how can this be configured? If not, what Azure functionality could I use to achieve this instead? The linked overview gives code examples for the client and server, but not any of the necessary configuration steps.

For communicating from a client to an actor running in a cluster, you need to have direct connectivity today - for example the Azure Load Balancer can't be in the way. To configure which cluster to connect to, create a ServicePartitionResolver with the FabricClientSettings, SecurityCredentials, and Endpoints matching the cluster, and then use ServicePartitionResolver.SetDefault (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.servicefabric.services.client.servicepartitionresolver.aspx)
