Is it possible to make a mounted SMB share behave as a system directory?

Sorry for the ambiguous title, I am not really sure the correct terminology for what I am asking (which is also making searching for an answer kid of tricky).
Basically, I have a TrueNas box on the network, with several SMB shares. I am mounting those shares in Linux Mint 20 (via File > Connect To server in Nemo).
Everything works fine (I can create and delete directories and files), but Mint obviously recognises this mounted share is not the local files system, so I am loosing some features (such as the ability to select files from the share when uploading to a browser or drag files from the share into open applications).
I was wondering if there is a way get support for these features? Do I need mount the shares via the command line with custom options? Or maybe do I need to look into using NFS instead?
Thanks in advance for any help.
