Is possible a way to scan file before download using some online AV or something similar?

I'm OSINT researcher. I'm regularly download something from the internet, specifically: videos, photos, files, documents, files from cloud services and I nonstop enter some links.

I'm Linux user and I do that things of virtual machine. Maybe exist a way, to know things that I must download, not contains any type of malicious software? Same with links. This is something normal in our job, but I start thinking about better security. In the past I found services let's say similar to online AV, that can scan that files.
