I don't think this is possible. Without having looked at org-agenda.el I
guess that the connection between agenda entries and items in .org files
is realised with Emacs Lisp markers (enabling cmds like
`org-agenda-show' in agenda mode). These markers are lost when you simply
copy the agenda contents to a plain text file, so there is no connection
anymore with the Org files.
Maybe the elisp markers could be replaced by unique IDs for each entry
or links that allow the look-up of the associated entries, and you are
lucky and somebody aready figured out how to do this?
