You might be able to use dired-do-shell-command ( '!' in dired-mode ).
Looks like you can even do it on groups of files... you could make it
queue by using the * or do all operations concurrently using '?' (look
at the docs for dired-do-shell-command).

After hitting '!' on the file of interest I entered 'cp ? c:/temp &'
and it worked just fine. Not sure how well it would work with tramp
though since my guess is it just uses the relative path of the file and
not the abosulte path.
