Yes, but if you save, then double-click on the saved file, Word will use the .dot file (which is a Word template) to create a new .doc file.

You still haven't explained why you need to have .dot files available on the intranet. If the idea is that the users should simply open the files from the intranet for editing, then .doc files would be more appropriate.
