X11 is network aware, in that is theoretically possible to speak the protocol over a network. However, anyone considering it should be aware that it is (1) extremely chatty, (2) extremely synchronous, and (3) extremely latency sensitive. It only works well on fast local networks. SSH certainly doesn't make it any faster.
In contrast, RDP and VNC type protocols are screen-replicating designs more suited to higher latency connections.
Finally, if you're using RDP, I'd suggest Remmina as an client. It's fantastic.
