The "url" the download manager is handed isn't really a url, but is more 
of a filesystem path.  Something like 
"/content/sha256/2342343242/some-name.zip".   So there's no way to open 
this string in a web browser.

However, if I misunderstood your question,  I still believe the answer 
is no. If you go to the rest service URLs directly in a web browser, 
such as 
{server}/rest/tc?downloadURL=/content/sha256/234234324/some-download.zip, you 
will never be walked through a web browser workflow for signing the 
terms and conditions.  As far as I can tell, the download portion of the 
website is merely a consumer of the download-manager, and, based on what 
the download-manager returns, will show different content.
