In short, yes.
the linkage rod (running from the lever to the engine) should have a locknut on either end of it. loosen these and twist the rod.
Dont turn it too much or it'll detach from one end or the other.

Make sure you tighten both locknut's after adjusting

I'm not certain for your model, but i'd expect you just undo the bolt and slide the lever/linkage off the shaft and rotate it around to where you want it then slide it back on.
