You did not tell anything about the other suggestions like using scp instead of sftp, but yes, you can do this, but the problem will be, that every output your sftp client produces, will be caught in that variable.
A more clean solution would be using ssh/scp.
Example (adjust your shell and <user> <host> etc. of course!):
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo "Starting.. -" $(date)
# get list:
echo "Getting file list ..."
FILELIST="$(ssh -o "ConnectTimeout=3" -o "BatchMode yes" <user>@<host> ls -1 /directory/${JOURNAL_CODE}*_[1-2]_Audit*.txt)"
# if $FILELIST not empty, then get files:
if [ -n $FILELIST ]; then
for file in $FILELIST; do
echo "Getting file $file ..."
scp <user>@<host>:/directory/$file /localdestdir
done
else
echo "Sorry, nothing there."
fi
echo "This is the End -" $(date)
echo "--------------------------------------"
exit 0
Untested, maybe some slight modifications needed.

tcrmttest - test cases of the remote database API
DESCRIPTION
The command `tcrmttest' is a utility for facility test under multi-thread situation. This command is used in the following format. `host'
specifies the host name of the server. `rnum' specifies the number of iterations.
tcrmttest write [-port num] [-tnum num] [-nr] [-rnd] [-ext name] host rnum
Store records with keys of 8 bytes. They change as `00000001', `00000002'...
tcrmttest read [-port num] [-tnum num] [-mul num] host
Retrieve all records of the database above.
tcrmttest remove [-port num] [-tnum num] host
Remove all records of the database above.
Options feature the following.
-port num : specify the port number.
-tnum num : specify the number of running threads.
-nr : use the function `tcrdbputnr' instead of `tcrdbput'.
-rnd : select keys at random.
-ext name : call a script language extension function.
-mul num : specify the number of records for the mget command.
If the port number is not more than 0, UNIX domain socket is used and the path of the socket file is specified by the host parameter. This
command returns 0 on success, another on failure.
