Yes. Before you distribute installation packages, you must approve the packages for specific managed devices, or groups of managed devices. You can also approve a package for removal, which uninstalls the package from the device. The software distribution component can remove and un-install software that was installed through MDM, or some other means such as Active Sync or external storage media. If you install software using other means, then you must publish the packages in MDM, and make sure that the inventory on the device is aware of the software.
