You mean to mount a GCS bucket on a Persistent disk on a Compute through FUSE? - guillaume blaquiere
Yes, maybe - as long I can access the data - Chris G.
But a Cloud Storage bucket is not a Cloud Disk? - Chris G.
No, you cannot FUSE mount Cloud Storage as a Persistent Disk. You can FUSE mount Cloud Storage as a folder that exists on a Persistent Disk as a normal Linux mount point which means the Persistent Disk must also be mounted with a supported file system. - John Hanley

You could use Cloud Storage FUSE, which is a FUSE adapter that allows you to mount buckets as file systems on Linux or macOS systems.

Cloud Storage FUSE can be run anywhere with connectivity to Cloud Storage, including Google Compute Engine VMs or on-premises systems. So it probably will suit whichever needs your system have.

If this is the way you choose to go, you can find more information on how it works and how to set it up in this documentation.
