Not directly. Server-to-server transfers using "port bouncing" (sometimes also
called "ftp server proxying" or more recently "FXP") represent a major security
hole. A few older ftp servers still support this, but most newer ones
cross-check IP addresses between their control and data connections to prohibit
such direct transfers, mostly to avoid some obvious denial-of-service attacks.
