Yes you can. You can back up your iPad Mini on a computer and then lock the file so that it will be saved. After that you can create another backup. You can also copy and move backups to other locations on your computer’s storage drive.

Here is a guide that is published by Apple and explains ➔ How to Manage your Backups files. Review the article(s). You will find it useful.
