Yes. It is a bit of a pain, but I just took mine off tonight. I did loosen the bar to install the painted RPI cover I replaced it with, just to avoid scraping it.
I was able to slip mine out underneath the strut tower brace. Little tight, but had it on and off a bunch of times, including just yesterday when installing my JLT cai. But, in a case that 2Cool just cited dealing with fresh paint, I too would lift the strut tower brace.
