Short Answer: No such ability, currently.
.
"Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" is a SINGLE "One" World "Tree", for all of us.
.
We ONLY have "Branches", that are interconnected, in this SINGLE "One" World "Tree".
.
"Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" is NOT like "Ancestry_com" or the like.
.
We DO NOT have "Private"/"Personal" 'Trees' in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" like other "Web" Sites; and/or, 'standalone' personal programmes.
.
We do not even, own; or, manage; and, are NOT even responsible for, the "Deceased" individuals/person in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".
.
"Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" is built on a "Open Edit" Platform - hence, why any registered User/Patron can "Edit" (ie. Add, Delete; and/or, Change) ANY "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".
.
If I recall, years ago we once had such an ability or something similar.
.
I remember a few Years ago I tried to "Download" my Ancestral lines from "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch"; but, after about 6 to 8 Hours and 200,000 individuals/persons; plus, associated relationships, the "Download" FAILED.
.
These days if you want to get a "Copy" of your Ancestral lines from "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch", the best option is to use one of the many "Third Party" Programmes (either, 'on-line'; or, ''standalone') that is "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch".
.
Those "Third Party" Programmes (either, 'on-line'; or, ''standalone') that are "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of "FamilySearch" can be found in the "Solutions Gallery" of "FamilySearch":

.
Take a look.
Try some of them.
See what suits.
You may like and use more than one.
There is not hard or fast rule.
Everyone has there own preference (or, preferences).
.
I hope this helps.
