"RCIA" is an acronym for "Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults." It is first of all a rite and therefore cannot be done online.
Sometimes we think of becoming a Christian as simply a matter of making an intellectual assent to a body of beliefs. This notion leads us to the understanding that we need to be instructed in a school-like structure about Christianity just as we might be instructed about mathematics. While there is an important intellectual component to Christianity, becoming a Christian is much more about practicing a counter-cultural lifestyle. The early Church called it "The Way." One learns to live as a Christian by living with and imitating other Christians. That cannot be done online, just as learning to play Baseball or learning to be a member of an orchestra cannot be done online. You have to be there.
While the Sacraments can not be administered online, there are ways to learn about the Faith and study the Faith online. For example, the online website CatechismClass.com offers an entirely online and interactive RCIA program that is meant to be used in conjunction with parishes or as home-study material. After the man/woman is done learning the material online, she is then in a position to ask her parish priest to receive the Sacraments.
