thewayneOf course it is!
In a recent developers build, Recall was shown as something that could be removed in Windows Features. This is apparently a bug and will be removed from the Features applet in a future update. The Verge reached out to Microsoft to try and find out if Recall will be removable but did not receive a direct answer.
In the EU, Microsoft was required to make their browser removable, presumably the same thing will be required for Recall. So hopefully some clever boffins over there will find the registry switches to let us do it over here.
