No. You need to be a superuser to reassign objects unless you own the object. You must also be a superuser to drop roles.
So. 1. first connect as user postgres 2. REASSIGN all the tables owned by the missing user first. 3. Then you can drop the missing user AFTER you have reassigned all the objects they own.
