If you just want to create the torrent and upload it to your FTP, then do so. It's no harder then that, but make sure to add trackers (if you do not run your own).

Even if it's possible, I don't see any point in doing that. It would be simpler to just let people download directly from your ftp, or you can post a torrent file somewhere which will let people download from you when you have a torrent client open.

Ah ok. I thought you meant you wanted to host the .torrent file (instead of the data). Well that sounds like a good idea but I don't know if it's possible.

utorrent supports web seeds

when you create the .torrent you can add the url where the file is hosted (only single files are supported atm)

It works with fttp, but I'm pretty sute that it supports ftp as well

give it a try
