On the intake side the answer is definitely yes. I've seen guys do it intentionally. There's very little risk.
On the exhaust side I'm a little hesitant about complete removal of the iron guide inside the exhaust port, exposing the bronze guide to the exhaust gases which can run up to 1000 degrees F. I have no experience however.
