This question came up in another thread.
Can you choose to not take all the figures in a given unit? i.e. can you leave a man behind?
I want to mount Rhino and the Hammer into the Fireball (cap 6) but they won't fit. (four A3 inf requires cap 8) Can I leave one of the Hammers behind (not even in the game) just to make them fit?
Thee is no rule saying that you can and they are bought as a full squad.

But I also haven't seen anything saying you couldn't, especially if you paid the full AP cost. Not sure if it would be a sound tactic, but it's an interesting concept.
I would say as long as you opponent says OK it fine.
I am with Major on this one and if I was your opponet I wouldn't let you do it.
