Yes you can, and probably the easiest way to remove the extra dictionaries is 
to edit a file with the name
  dictionary.lst

On my Linux system, it is 
at /opt/openoffice.org2.0/share/dict/ooo/dictionary.lst
If you are on a Windows system, then do a file search for it, but do not take 
the one in your local area, which contains the dictionaries you have 
downloaded since. It is a simple text file.

You can either remove the lines in this file you do not use, or, better, just 
comment them out by adding a # as the first character of the lines you do not 
want because then you can add them back again easily if you need them later.
