No!

No more than an invisible fighter or mage could.

Stalker kit Rangers and thieves (but not swashbucklers) can backstab when using thief-usable weapons in the main hand - and they must be invisible / hide in shadows / misled, etc. - and typically behind the target.

Backstab will not work on creatures with innate see invis (demons, ilithids, dragons) and some creatures, such as golems are immune.
