You could do that, as long as you are careful & don't create a short-circuit. Figure out some way to hold the battery cables so they don't touch anything after they are disconnected & you remove the car's battery.

Here in USA we can go on-line to Honda Ownerlink and look up the radio codes. Since we don't get the cdti, I know you're not in USA but maybe there's something like that?
