Perhaps "fsarchiver" may do the job? It does backup live systems.

There are also dump utilities for various file systems, for example xfsdump/xfsrestore for XFS, and probably similar tools for EXT2/3/4. If you're using lvm, you could take an lvm snapshot and then create a backup of that. I'll leave it to the lvm experts to comment in detail.
