Technically it seems possible.

Hi, I believe installing a patch for fonts or screen savers will prevent the auto update feature working.

See this post :

Of course you apply the patches at your own risk.

Though I have applied the fonts, screensaver and usbnetwork patches with no problem

They are actually very easy to install.

Cheers, Ian
