Yes, it is possible to create a task with SyncBackFree to backup your files and folders to your Dropbox account. While SyncBack Free itself doesn't directly support cloud storage as a destination, you can achieve this by creating a symbolic link to your Dropbox folder on your local machine. 

Also, you can use alternative tools like Rclone, Duplicati, or Gs Richcopy to do this task directly.
