Yes, here's the mode you'll want to take a look at for storing them
(from 'man pfb'), then pfuDownloadTexList to pre-load.

   [...]
   pfdConverterMode_pfb, pfdGetConverterMode_pfb,
   pfdConverterAttr_pfb, pfdGetConverterAttr_pfb, pfdConverterVal_pfb
   and pfdGetConverterVal_pfb allow the user to access and alter the
   modes, attributes and values of the pfb loader/storer. The pfb
   converter modes are:
   [...]
       PFPFB_SAVE_TEXTURE_IMAGE
            By default texture images are not saved in pfb files if the
            name of the file names an image file. Setting this mode to
            PF_ON forces the texture image to be saved.
