Sure. However, that kind of storage is really only for device use. It's not something that can be used like a USB flash drive. It's possible to download a movie on iTunes to an iPhone, but if that's deleted on the computer the version on the iPhone can't be extracted as if it were a backup.


Anything in the camera roll can be offloaded to a computer though. Also documents can typically be emailed as attachments.
