Hi Massimo,
Yes, you can create a restricted FTP account that can see any directory you like as it root. This will prevent that account from moving out of that directory, it can access sub-directories if you set it up that way.

I have attached some notes on creating such an account. Also, this account will only be allowed to access the system via FTP.

Hope this helps.
