Not possible yet - you can do a phablet-flash --bootstrap to bring the 
phone to pristine state.

You can use the backup feature in the recovery system, just as you would 
in CWM - go 'adb reboot recovery' or hold all the buttons when booting, 
and choose backup/restore. You can then copy the files over for safekeeping.

HTH,
