Is there a way to use 'net use' via remote command to map a drive?

Yes and no. Mapped drives can only be accessed by the account that created them, so a user logged on isn't going to be able to use the mapping.

I think it might be possible if we create a bat file  with below command in it

net use x: \\network path\volume

and by some way we deploy that bat locally onto network computer. Like Pdq copy the bat file to Remote computer & run it under active user profile.

or we could run it under current environment instead of user

 /env       Use current environment instead of user's.
