Yes they can; but it is a slow process for the cat and he feels vulnerable while doing it, because he has to back down the trunk and can't really see what he is getting into. Many cats, generally ones who have not been properly trained in tree0climbing, would rather sit at the top of the tree and howl.

How does a raccoon's climbing ability help them?

Some of them live in hollow trees, so climbing helps. Climbing down headfirst must be easier for them too. Maybe that's why cats get stuck in trees; cats can't climb down headfirst. The raccoon's rear feet rotate 180o whenever it climbs down headfirst.This helps them in finding safe nesting areas in dead trees, it helps them to escape predators, and it helps them find food, such as fruit, insects and birds eggs.
