Yes, if you have a topsider or any suction device with a hose that can pull liquids it can easily be easily removed through the dipstick tube. Too much oil can cause the crankshaft to splash in the oil and cause foaming with introduces air bubbles into the oil. This air can then possibly be picked up and introduced into the lubrication system.
