Not unless you drop a valve in the cylinder. :p

And if you do that, you need to take the head off to get it back out.

UNLESS, you got REALLY REALLY LUCKY and the cylinder happened to be at TDC, at which point, it might not fall too far to catch it.

You want a compressor similar to this one.

Overhead Spring Compressor

And an air compressor with a fitting for the spark plug goes to keep the valve up.

if you don't have an air compressor some cotton rope fed into the sparkplug hole to fill the cylinder (leave enough out to grab)will keep the valves from falling in.

Risky. One guy on ClubGP did that and when they went to remove it, it knotted. They had to pull the head to get it out.

Don't rush on the install now! Make sure you don't mess something up.
