Yes.

Boot single-user.
At the shell prompt, enter
	# mount -u /
	# mv /usr /usr.root
	# mkdir /usr
	# rm -rf /usr.root

The 'mount -u' updates root to be read/write.  The minor shuffle
here is to make sure you don't forget the 'mkdir /usr' step.  :-)
It also allows you to go ahead and mount /usr and/or boot multi-user
before removing /usr.root if you like.
