I'm just wondering if there was a way for people to host their avatars elsewhere and get like a hotlink from it and use it as their avatars in CB?

No, CB does not have any such feature to host external avatars. You can fake this using substitutions and a text or webaddress fieldtype. Using substitutions such as the following example would render the external image. Please keep in mind this won't display in places like login module or anywhere else the actual avatar is requested.

[code:1]
[cb:if cb_webaddress!=""]<img src="[cb_webaddress]" alt="[username]" />[/cb:if]
[/code:1]
