I doubt it. k3b is for copying stuff to/from to CD/DVD media. It can
handle straight data files, audio CDs, iso images etc., but AFAIK it's
not going to automatically split a large data set into multiple DVDs.
Even if it did, I wouldn't bet on being able to recover anything from
the middle of the set, which is a fairly basic requirement for a backup
system.

However I haven't tried doing this, so who knows?
