With Filtering Enabled on, could a Server Script in the PlayerGui conduct data retrieval to access the saved data and place it in a value within the Player?

A revision to the above.

Filtering Enabled on:

Can you retrieve/save data with a Server Script in the PlayerGui or does it have to be fired through a remote event and the server load retrieve/save data?

You should try to use Local Scripts they run inside the player.

Is OP still talking about roblox? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wst8g5CwSyo

If you want to see the data from the PlayerGui I suggest storing all the data in the ReplicatedStorage, so both Client and Server can access it.

You shouldn't access the PlayerGui from the server anyways.
