I don't think that exists a way to retrieve the exact CIFS path for a node from the Alfresco Web Services API.
Anyway you can retrieve the path for the node and you could try to build the CIFS path starting from the node path.

Hope this helps.

IMO that's very strange since Alfresco itselve supports the functionality, even through webscripts.
Retrieving the CIFS path from the XPath (if that's what you mean) is a cream since content can contain special characters in it's name.

I don't feel like creating a find and replace function

The URL is available on the TemplateNode (Freemarker) and ScriptNode (JavaScript).
