Unfortunately, it’s currently impossible to do that via an option or a plugin.
So far, image *must* be uploaded for BuddyPress to place it in a proper place and display.

But if you are tech-savvy, you could try to filter bp_attachments_get_attachment() function, that is used to get the URL to a cover image. And build a custom form, where users insert URL, and you save them into usermeta table and then retrieve and display.
