Not exactly. Boot to multi-user using cmdline option nomodeset if necessary,
then
start by purging every .deb that is NVidia related, then look into the /etc/X11/
tree for any .conf file containing anything related to NVidia, and remove such
file(s). Do similar with /etc/mod*/, excising anything resembling NVidia. Finish
up by rebuilding your initrd(s) to clean them of NVidia debris, and shutting
down
to put the AMD GPU back in. The AMD shouldn't need any .conf files in /etc/X11/.
