Can the upper & lower cylinders be removed with the motor in the frame?

For the lower cylinders, yes for sure. For the upper I should say yes also.
But it's not such a big task to remove the motor from the frame, can be done easily alone ( 55 kgs to remove ), and it's so easier to work on the motor that I wouldn't hesitate.
