No.
In very, very rare cases, there is a way to do something before you pay to get them removed. In most cases, even that is not possible.
In all cases, without exception, there is no possible way to pay, and then have them removed. Once you have paid, they cannot be removed. Paying eliminates whatever possibility there might have been. They probably can't be removed under any circumstances, but if they can be removed by some miracle, then they can be removed only if you don't pay.
Once you have paid, the only way that they can ever be removed is if you do nothing and wait until whenever they would have been removed due to their age if you had not paid and had not done anything to get them removed.
