Yes: Abdominal pathology can cause back pain. If you have any associated symptoms such as nerve pains running into your legs, you should see a physician for clarification.

Liver problems: If your abdomen is distended u should ask your doctor, if u have ascites. This can happen in advanced cirrhosis of liver. With abdominal distension, ur abdominal muscles r strained&this can cause ur back muscles2also get strained&cause back problems. But any abdominal problems can cause back pain, including gallbaldder, liver, kidneys, peptic ulcer disease. Dont delay see ur doctor asap.
