As the topic says, I'm pretty new to version control structures. But before i decide to use this, I'm wondering, If it is possible for users to modify a script/file without having to copy that file into the user's local machine.

That means even if the user checks out the file, it doesn't make a copy in the user's machine, but instead automatically creates a temporary copy in the server, lets the user modify the file. Commit the file, and vss will automatically revise it accordingly and delete the temporary copy.

No. VSS copies the file into our local machine when you check out a file so that you can make changes and then check in.
