Is there any way to join a friend's game on RoN via online play (not LAN)?

Use Hamachi. My friends and I used to play RoN all the time using this. Or, you might be able to directly join a game via IP address (I forget if RoN supports this)

I remembered using Hamachi when I played DotA with some people from j2 but I couldn't remember the name.
