Yes, but suggest removing and temporary plugging the vacuum line to the actual EGR valve. This will prevent the EGR valve from working.
EGR looks similar to the item below:

Here, I found this video that pretty much explains it all.
In my thread just today I finally got to the bottom of a hesitation I had while the engine was still warming up.
I took off the EGR valve, and poured automotive thinner into it, and let it sit for a few hours. You can use brake cleaner, or carb cleaner as they both work fine, but I didn't have either on hand today.
Anyway, when I went to remove the vacuum line going TO THE EGR valve, I noticed big chunks of carbon coming out of the vacuum line so I took it off, and cleaned it out.
Now the hesitation seems to be gone.
I did have a bad coil, but after replacing it with a new NGK, the engine ran better, but the bog during engine warming was still there.
So, view the video, and clean not only your EGR valve, but also check the bottom vacuum line to make sure it isn't clogged, AND the hole in the intake manifold after you remove the egr valve as my intake had half the hole in the intake blocked with carbon.
