If you mean actually remove the eprom lid, probably there is a safe
way, but only in a clean room.   Also the connections are so small you
have no chance of actually soldering anything to it with any equipment
you have.

You can get a device to piggy back on to the chip and have the ribbon
cable attach to that.

You you could put something between the eprom and the socket to tap
off the pins (if you have room).
