Yes. In theory, a combination of high light, with generous uv component (corals really wanna protect symbiont from that) and low nutrients to keep the symbiont from growing much will give you lots of fluorescent proteins, and not much brown symbiont to dull the color.
But it's debatable whether that is actually good for the coral host, even in theory - set aside the practical difficulty of balancing the tightrope.
