Yes, but neither of these methods gives correct playback. If that's important you can change the initial clef to Bass Clef using the Clef tool, selecting "Clef Change at Beginning of Measure" and "Measure 1 Through End of Piece". The notes will go way up above the staff but you then highlight the whole staff with Mass Mover tool and transpose down a 6th + 1 Octave and they will end up in the correct place again, with all the expressions, articulations and smart shapes if you've entered any.
