no, you can't access the file system when in DFU mode. openssh isn't run when in DFU mode. i just tried it right now and i can't access my phone when in DFU mode (tried ssh via usb)

the only chance you have is if the phone is an A4 device. if it's an A4 device, you could try mounting it as a ramdisk and access the files that way
