Yes. I don't know about MB, but I know someone who had a shop "tune" a BMW

I wonder if the computers are smart enough to prevent running if the DPF and
EGR are removed. Of course you would not be able to pass emissions testing if
your state does that, not to mention risking a large fine.
There's apparently a small contingent of owner/operators who are restoring and
