No, that would break a build. Why would you want to do that anyway?

Yea, like Costas said, Kodi has a library backup feature already in Kodi settings you can use.

After I started using Trakt library instead of Kodi Library many years ago, I never looked back.
With Kodi library it took hours to update 400+ shows, and it had -still has- limits and issues like duplicates when using 2 addons that don't support it.
Now, using Trakt library, everything is fast, and I never have to save anything on my SSD.
