Cannot launch remote machine "launch" file from local machine.

Even though roslaunch can be used to start launch files on remote machines, resolving resources (ie: paths, packages, etc) is always done on the local machine.

The consequence of this is that your local machine must have the same workspace layout as your remote machine(s), or roslaunch will not be able to find the launch file that you are trying to include (as it doesn't exist on your local machine).

See #q257152 and #q230688 for related questions and answers.

The consequence of this is that your local machine must have the same workspace layout as your remote machine(s), machine(s) (or at least: for the things that you are trying to start remotely), or roslaunch will not be able to find the launch file that you are trying to include (as it doesn't exist on your local machine).
