Yes you can. And it's a lot easier if you get Pkzip or Winzip, which can
compress the entire set into a single big file--which is still lots smaller
than the total Ebase set. I have 200 or so members, with three years of
data, and can still zip the file set down into something that will (just)
fit on a floppy.
A really useful thing to do would be to either email the file to somebody
at home, or get a free web/email account online somewhere. They give you
enough file space that you could keep an offsite backup in
cyberspace. Great insurance against fire, burglary, or other disaster.
