By putting some records into the DNS, yes it is possible to have a cert
issued for a domain name that will then work for any service, including
FTPS or even some form of Gopher/TLS if such a thing exists.

Personally I've used the certs for mail servers, FTP servers, XMPP
servers as well as many many web servers.

Thanks,
Iain.
