Technically, the check valve on the drum actuator, # T4079200, can be removed. However, it is not recommended to do so because you could end up damaging the master cylinder. It would be best to go with the appropriate actuator, # T4747200.
You could also replace the master cylinder in the drum brake actuator using the disc brake master cylinder # T1777405.
