Yes, but switching from FTP to SFTP means you will need to add your site again. Unfortunately, switching protocols has a number of implications for your backups. A new protocol will often mean that all of the paths to your files will change, the user and group associated with your content will change, and the permissions for the files will change.

If you are on a premium plan (Professional or higher), you can add clients to individual websites. This way, clients can receive ChangeAlerts and log in and view their backups. Clients cannot delete websites or modify settings, but they are empowered to perform zip requests, on-demand backups, and restores.

If you would like to restore only some of your website file content to a particular point in time, you can use the Selective Restore feature.
