Yes, you can supply a file/folder ID in the 'path' parameter for /2/files/get_metadata:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_metadata

The same applies to the respective method in the official SDKs. For example, in the API v2 Java SDK:

https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-java/api-docs/v3.0.x/com/dropbox/core/v2/files/DbxUserFilesReq...
