Nope. The standard FTP protocol itself doesn't support ipv6. For instance how do you specify the address in the PORT command or PASV reply? There's an RFC out there with a new command for specifying IPv6 addresses, but I'm not sure anybody actually implemented it and doubtful clients have either...
