No, members of db_backupoperator can't necessarily see data in tables
(unless select on the tables/views has been granted to public since as a
database user he will also be a member of PUBLIC). However, this doesn't
confer any rights to restore. In order to restore a database you'll need to
make him a member of the db_owner role. Even that won't give you full
restore capabilities if you ever have to drop/recreate the database and then
restore (for that he'll need to be in the dbcreator fixed server role).
