Can I Backup My iPhone with Passcode?

By this I assume what you're asking is if it's possible to back up your iPhone without knowing the passcode. The answer is no. If the phone was already set to back up to iCloud automatically, adding a passcode will not change that.

Automatic iCloud Backup

If Settings [Your Name] iCloud iCloud Backup is turned on, your iPhone will automatically back itself up to iCloud whenever it is connected to a charger and within range of a WiFi access point you've previously joined. This happens regardless of whether the device is unlocked or not.

Manual iTunes Backup

Alternatively, if Settings [Your Name] iCloud iCloud Backup is turned off, you can manually back up your iPhone to your computer using iTunes. Simply connect your iPhone to your computer running iTunes, and the device will automatically sync and back up your data. This process also does not require the device to be unlocked.

WiFi Sync and Backup

If you have Sync this iPhone over WiFi enabled in the iTunes settings, you don't need to connect your iPhone to the computer with a cable. The device will automatically back up to iTunes on the computer whenever it's connected to a charger and within the same WiFi range as the computer. Again, the device does not need to be unlocked for this to happen.
