Is it possible to remove supports from a section of the print?

I'm trying to print a complex shape and would like to remove the supports from interior areas that are difficult to access. Is it possible to selectively remove supports from one section only?

Hi, 
are we talking FDM or SLA. 

In FDM printing, Mk2/s, Mk3/s, Mini, you can use support blockers and support from bed, only, to reduce the unwanted support material, 

in SLA printing , Prusa SL1, then you can select and remove individual supports
