yes you can, you have to install linux-firmware with the savedconfig use flag,
after emerging it'll give the location of the config file in the output, open
it up and remove the radeon firmware from being built so there are no
collisions and you can remove anything else you are sure you won't need, then
re-emerge linux-firmware and you should be good to goI needed network firmware
also
