Yes of course.
How do you arrive at the current rating otherwise?
kW rating of the feeder divided by power factor gives kVA. Total current drawn by a feeder can be calculated from kVA.
If the PDB net power factor is lower than that considered in the rating of UPS, you may have to resize the UPS even.
