Yes, heating the ring will expand it and make it easier to remove.

BUT.

Heat soak from the ring when refitting can damage the grease and seals in the bearing so care is required as to the temperature reached by the heating. It is acceptable to heat the ring in boiling water or better still boiling oil. As soon as the ring is seated, cool it with air from the air line.
