That's the wrong question to ask. The right question is: What reason is

Anyway, the answer is yes:

220 GNU FTP server ready.

230-NOTICE (Updated October 13 2017):
230-
230-Because of security concerns with plaintext protocols, we still
230-intend to disable the FTP protocol for downloads on this server
230-(downloads would still be available over HTTP and HTTPS), but we
230-will not be doing it on November 1, 2017, as previously announced
230-here. We will be sharing our reasons and offering a chance to
230-comment on this issue soon; watch this space for details.
230-
230-If you maintain scripts used to access ftp.gnu.org over FTP,
230-we strongly encourage you to change them to use HTTPS instead.
