No, you can't. But Deja Dup is just a graphical front end for the command line tool duplicity, which you can use on a server.

Its command line interface is a bit complicated, but read its man page or some of the instructions in Deja Dup's manual restore help page: https://live.gnome.org/DejaDup/Help/Restore/WorstCase
