Yes, you can do few things like:

  1. Files: From the FileZilla, download all Files

  2. Database: From PhpMyAdmin if you have access download database, if you do not have that, then as you have FTP access, upload a lightweight mysql manager like this ONE file, https://www.adminer.org/ , upload it , and then give login for the database. You can get database login info from wp-config.php which you can access via FTP. And then EXPORT mysql database dump...

  3. New Domain: Once you have both files and database, you can load them to any server or WAMP/LAMP on your local pc, and then do search replace for the URL from old domain to new domain like using , this awesome script: https://github.com/interconnectit/Search-Replace-DB

And it will make your site functional on new URL/Domain from existing site files and database.
