It's possible,you would have to run a string around all the pulleys,find the right size belt and see if it clears the a/c pulley. Also, do you still have a pulley that is adjustible for the tightning?

i did that on my 3.0
just ask, or tell the parts guy you dont have AC. I cant remember if I fully described my intentions or not to the parts guy, but I got the right sized belt that fit everything and bypassed the ac compressor. worked great! better MPG too!
