Sure as long as they are on the device running NR and the user running NR has permission to access the 'from' and 'to' locations.

You could use an `exec` node and pass it the cli command to do that or one of the contributed 'file' nodes. Go to the 'flows' tab her on the forum and search for 'contrib-fs' and try them out.
