1. yes.
2. Not like what you would want. Try the ls command that sftp offers

Code:
sftp $SFTP_USER@$SERVER <<EOF | grep -q 'No such file'
cd $SFTP_RDIR
ls $SFTP_RFILE
bye 
EOF
if [ $? -eq 1 ] ; then
  echo 'no such remote file'
else
sftp $SFTP_USER@$SERVER <<EOF 
cd $SFTP_RDIR
get $SFTP_RFILE
bye 
EOF
 
fi
