If you're the owner of the share or have been given permission to manage access, yes. If not, your best bet would be to create a new shared folder, invite anyone to it that needs access, then move your data from the old share to the new share.

thank you for your response. To further clarify we all access the drop box account with our own individual emails. So your saying unless i change his email he will have access? I can't change his email as its his personal email?
How can I create a new drop box account which i can share with valid users and copy all of the 'old' drop box files into the new one

Hi BPOP123, how are you today?
Do you wish to remove the member from a shared folder, by any chance?
Because if you all use individual accounts, and you don't have a Business plan, that means that you all have your own accounts. Which in this case you can't block unless you do what Rich mentioned.
Let me know more.
