Yes, you can unlatch KB keys but after a couple of years the plastic key seats may break. A better solution is to get a narrow strong strip of paper or very thin plastic, shut down the laptop and wriggle that strip under the dirty key(s) starting at the corners while toggling the key(s). I use a bamboo toothpick that I stripped (broke in 2 and peeled one end off) to a paper thin, but strong end, with that I am able to lift the cap up a bit (careful not to unseat the key) and remove the dirt. Afterwards use a clean long hair (make-up) brush and PC ball blower under the keys. Take care that hairs from that brush don't get trapped under the key a break as you will have to remove the cap then.
