Yeah, you can. I was tempted to drop it back down, since pulling the heads(with the headers and primary cats still attached) was awkward enough, but ultimately I left it in the air. Though if I had it to do over, I'd drop it back down....any tools dropped will either be in reach outright, or use a stick; and shallow pans do just fine for coolant either way.
