Can I model a 'fire and forget' process (ie can I model multiple end points)

I have a computer system process to model which runs in a linear manner but copies archive copies of the data off to an archive location asynchronously (ie initiate the copy then proceed with the next step of the process). 

I want the main process to continue without re-merging the 'copy to archive' branches as that will affect timings but I want the process in the model as it places load on the server resource (which is something I want to include in the model).

Is this possible?
