I think it's possible.
try this. put some dowells in the cam holes so it cannot turn at all, tie them to the cam towers. also use wire or zip ties all around the cam to hold the chain from moving at all.
this ought to ... are you planning on removing the head? this won't work if you are....
anyway, assuming you are just pulling the crank, next remove the chain tensioner so you have enough slack to remove the timing gear from the crank. see if you can now get the crank out of the chain. you may need to cut a link to get the crank out, I do not know, but this would hold the IP and the Cam from moving.
