No, not unless you cut it off. They are permanently affixed to the chassis itself. You also, cannot remove the stand from a 2012 -2017 27" iMac, iMacs made 2011 and earlier had this ability however it is no longer available.


If you want to fit your iMac as hand baggage (bad idea IMHO) get yourself a travel case (Google will give many options) and then choose which is best for you.
