I can find lots of tutorials and examples on how to upload a file from sdcard to dropbox account. But how can I upload a file that is not in sdcard and all I have is url? I don't want to download it and then upload it, because file is like 400MB size.

All you need to do is create the link in your Dropbox account. After doing this& you can copy the link and share it directly with the recipient. When the recipient receives your message& they can click on the link to open the file directly in their Dropbox.
Open the Dropbox folder where you'd like to store your files. Tap the "+" (plus sign) at the bottom of your screen. Tap Upload files (Android) or Create or Upload File (iPhone/iPad). Tap Upload (Android) or Upload File (iPhone/iPad).
Notes: Anyone can send a file to you, whether they have a Dropbox account or not. All files collected with a file request will take up space in your Dropbox account.
Save Web Files (http://ctrlq.org/save/) can do it. (just visit the website on your android)

Dropbox has implemented this as a native API call: https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2015/06/programmatically-saving-a-url-to-dropbox/
This is currently being re-implemented by DBinbox.com to be more user-friendly :)
