Can I make a new FTP user under my hosting and give them access to ONE folder in my home directory?

E.g.

new user called newuser123, so their dir is:
/home/newuser123

Can I give newuser123 access to SPECIALFOLDER in
/home/olduser123/SPECIALFOLDER/

Does that make sense?

Yep, that's called remapping a subdirectory. The wiki is your friend:
