Yes, you can obtain the axial force at a specific cross-section. You can extract the nodal forces at a cross-section by summing the reaction forces in the Z-direction at nodes belonging to that cross-section.
Define a nodal set at the desired cross-section.
Extract the nodal forces in the Z-direction (FZ).
Sum these nodal forces to get the total axial force at that cross-section.
