Yes, you can do that with wget -c.

See "man wget", you might also want to see "--ftp-user" and
"--ftp-password" options, and also the possible use of .wgetrc or
.netrc to store passwords without passing them on the command line.

I believe it's also possible to achieve the same using ncftp/ncftpget,
but it's been a while I haven't used those, you might want to check
the man pages of those as well.

HTH,
Filipe
