Yes. Include an empty array for the `cloud_actions` parameter when sending a request to the [Deploy code endpoint](https://dev.acquia.com/api-documentation/acquia-cloud-platform-api#operation/postEnvironmentsDeployCode). You can also use [Acquia CLI](/acquia-cloud-platform/add-ons/acquia-cli) to do this:

`acli api:environments:code-deploy myapp.dev myapp.test --cloud-actions=""`
