Copy file from my local machine to itself using network

Copy file from my local machine to itself using network

Is it possible to send a file from my local computer to my local computer through the network? (Linux prefered)
It must use the network because my goal is to check the transfer speed. I don't use two distinct hosts because I only have one computer. Does this test make any sense at all? (Or will Linux be clever and realize it can just copy the file locally because it's one and the same?)
