Yes. The IR blocker is removed from the sensor, and replaced either with plain glass or a filter that allows the wavelengths you want through. It usually costs around $200-$300 to get the camera customized like this, and from that point on, any regular visible light photography with that camera will require an IR blocker on the lens, otherwise color values could be inaccurate.
Most people tend to dedicate a customized body for IR work only because of this issue, and most typically use an older body after they've upgraded to a newer one.
