No, it cannot.

You CAN remove the rear wheel without removing the rear shock or removing the belt entirely. Even though this is what the service manual says to do. But I was able to leave the belt on the front drive sprocket.

To remove the rear wheel you do have to remove the axle and that requires you to release the tension on the belt and take the belt off only the rear sprocket. This is what I did. I took off the upper and lower outer drive belt covers, backed off the belt tension screw all the way, and was then able to pull the belt off the rear sprocket. That rear sprocket is part of the rear wheel.
Here is a photo of when I pulled the rear belt off the sprocket.

I did post somewhere what I did with pictures when I removed my rear wheel and reinstalled when replacing the tire.

Attached is a link to the official service manual section that I extracted for doing this. (too big to attach). I did not remove the covers over the front drive sprocket and I did not remove the rear shock at all. But I did follow most of what is instructed only as needed to for getting the rear wheel off. Instruction manuals always tend to have you doing a lot more to do some things than is really needed so it's up to you to determine how far you really need to go to do what you are attempting to do.

Something that I would consider is maintaining the warranty. If you had a pump failure or a pump seal failure, for example, then they could play hardball and deny a warranty claim, imo.
