Yes it is possible.

You can remove the star and the 4 chrome pieces first.

However, it is pretty difficult to remove the main piece without breaking off the locking tabs.

I actually did this 3 days ago.
Take a look under the grill surround and try to release the taps under there slightly.
Start from the side closest to the headlight, and try to release slightly the tabs while drag it towards you one at the time
That was my solution
