No, because T-top cars are classed as coupes and are subject to the same crash and roof crush regulations as coupes. The structural element over the the door is integral in meeting those regulations.

Targa are classed as convertibles which have less stringent requirements. Getting a targa done when there is already a coupe & convertible (or at least intentions for both) shouldn't be too hard. Though one issue I can think of on the Camaro is just how, exactly, would you get a targa roof inside the trunk? The roof looks pretty wide, while the trunk seems somewhat narrow (and the opening small). I guess you could probably put it in the back seat. Or leave it at home & hope it doesn't rain.
