Yes as of CF8, just add secure="true" when you open the connection.

Here's a simple example:

<cfftp action="open" server="#server#" connection="ftpSession"
username="#user#" password="#pass#" secure="true">
<cfif cfftp.succeeded>
        <cfftp action="listdir" connection="ftpSession" directory="/" 
name="list">
        <cfdump var="#list#">
<cfelse>
        Error:
        <cfdump var="#cfftp#">
</cfif>

Though you might want to consider using the key attribute instead of
username and password, see
