That depends on whether or not you want to get the tire off in one piece!
I suppose you could always take off one end of the shock absorber and get
the axle to drop far enough to get the wheel off it, but why bother, when
the fender skirt comes off so easily? Of course the answer also depends on
what size tire is on the wheel. If it is an 8.20X15 or its modern radial
equivalent, the 235/75R15, I don't think you'll get it off without one or
the other such actions.
