I use Mysqldump to backup databases on the server machine. However I would like to include the ability to backup data from my software which is not running on the server machine. Can I backup via ODBC?

 
Yes.

However, if your software is distributed among several users, you may want to consider a more secure/efficient method than to allow each user to dump data.

Only privileged users, Admins who would be assigned the task of data backup.
