'Running an analysis script on files in Azure Storage

Can I run analysis directly on files stored in Azure Storage (blob storage maybe)? What I mean by this is I have various image files that I want to run some kind of analysis on. I have a Rust script/application that will do this, and locally, it works - meaning, when I run this Rust program on my local machine pointing my image directly, it does its thing and gives me what I want. My idea is to store these image files in Azure Storage and use the same (or maybe modified) Rust script to do the analysis - I don't need help with the scripting part - just the Storage thing.

Over the top of my head I don't think it's possible, and the only other way I think it can be done is by using Files Storage and mapping it to a VM as a network drive, and run the script on it. Is there another way to do it?
