Yes you can use the Fibre Transport if you use the VCB proxy.   If you wan't to use the FTL service inside a virtual host, then no I don't think you can.

You can backup by installing a client software to ESX host but it will be overhead to ESX server. 

So it is better you configure VCB proxy SAN media server and do VCB based backup to backup ESX server

San Client and SAN media server cannot backup remote clients
