I use utorrent for downloading using remote desktop.
Can i set it to download in secure mode or is it not supported? (I mean hide my data on network)
Is there any torrent downloader that does?

As others have already noted, HTTPS has nothing to do with torrents.
But in uTorrent you can enable encryption for outgoing connections, and optionally accept only encrypted incoming connections from others. Just download latest uTorrent version, go to Preferences > BitTorrent and in Protocol Enctiption select appropriate settings:

Well, it depends :) If it is just 'enabled', then some of the connections may still be unencrypted. If it is 'forced', then some of the outgoing connections may be dropped, and upload speed will be somewhat lower. If 'allow legacy incoming connections' is enabled, then again some of the connections won't be encrypted 'cause the other side does not support it. If it is disabled, then some of the incoming connections will be dropped, and download speed will be lower.
You have to decide for yourself what is more important. It's a trade off between speed and security. Personally for me 'enabled' with 'legacy connections' allowed is quite enough to satisfy my level of paranoia :]
