Yes, you can. I was in the exact same situation as you and used this to downgrade. The one in the snapshots thread didn't work for me. (.bin file disappeared after removing USB cable and UYK greyed out).

The fw>5.14.2 has the annoying 'Cloud not available' nag and on 5.14.3.0.1 it would sometimes freeze to a white screen for me while reading. I had to double restart to fix that. Never experienced that on 5.14.2 on my previous PW5 (had a soft brick while tinkering and got a new replacement from Amazon since it was under warranty).
