Backup more than one icloud account to macOS server using photos application

Using latest macOS on a mid 2010 iMac and two icloud user accounts.

Scope:

Downloading iCloud files to server from more than one iCloud account.


Currently:

All my photos (sources iMac Photos and iPhone) are stored in iCloud.

A copy of the full sized files are downloaded by my server using the Photos application.


Question:

Am I able to perform this type of backup/work flow for more than one icloud account using macOS Server?

VIN, iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), iOS 11.3.1, MacOS server

macOS Server.app doesn’t provide photo synchronization features, and is largely independent of iCloud snd iCloud logins. Different clients can be logged into different iCloud acounts, and access file shares on macOS or macOS with Server.spp installed; file shares are independen of iCloud credentials.
