I would hazard that the most you could do would be a telnet+PPP combined application. Technically that is then Mac on the internet, but it's not what you mean.
Well I don't think there's any PPP support, but I could be wrong (as always)... Contiki on the Apple II manages TCP/IP over ethernet and a text-based web browser... and wget, which is bloody useful. Email kinda works, as does ftp, but telnet is a bit of a farce with it's 32x8ish window, but it does somewhat function.

And then there's the webserver 8-o

So, all that on a 1 Mhz 8-bit machine with 64K... I'm sure it could do a bit more on a Mac.
