Yes, but gently. There is really no need tho because they will fall off on their own.

just leave them alone, you want as much green getting light as possible

Yeah, just leave them alone, they will drop off/shrivell off in due course.

Wait.
You don't want to run the risk of pulling off a strip of the stem too.

those leaves will fall off, the plant is getting rid of them cuz they dont get enough light

It's more that they are 'baby leafs', they exist as a 'stop gap' until the plant has grown a few proper leafs, but yes just leave them alone.
