Will external vac. pump for AC system vac oil out??

I've spent the weekend redoing the AC system on Smash. I will add details to my cheap wagon thread, but had a question.
After replacing all the parts and the o'rings and adding the ester oil, I attached the evacuation pump to my AC gauge lines.
So, can this suck out some of the oil that is installed in the system? I had pretty much the exact amount I needed and hope none is removed via the vacuuming......
