Symlinks (or soft links, created by "ln -s") can point anywhere from a Linux filesystem. So, there should be no problem moving large files from a Linux filesystem to a FAT filesystem, and replacing them with symlinks.

Hard links (created by "ln") cannot span filesystems at all, even if they're the same type.
