Is it possible to retrieve contacts from iPhone backup without iOS device

“My iPhone 5 fell out of my pocket when I was on a plane, I did not notice it till later. I called it with no response. it was gone. My problem is how can I recover my contacts and other stuff on my lost iPhone? Now I only have a Mac which has backup file in it, but I can’t restore from backup because I don’t have other apple products in hand. So I am wondering is it possible to retrieve my contacts from the backup without iOS device.”
