You can drag and drop original document in download folder in finder , leaving alias , the same alias will be viewed in www.icloud.com

See the article https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchl1a02d711/10.14/mac/10.14

Make sure the iCloud Drive and desktops and documents box is checked https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mchle5a61431/10.14/mac/10.14
