Partially if using HTTP Range requests. Squid supports Range requests
between the client and Squid, but not between Squid and a origin FTP
server.

If the object is cached then Squid will respond with only the requested
range. If the object isn't cached then Squid will download the complete
object, but only the requested range is sent to the client. FTP REST is
not currently used.
