Yes. (that's really about all there is to say...) Except... You didn't tell us WHICH MBP you have and what year it was made. If the MBP you have supports USB3.1 gen2, get an "nvme" blade SSD and a ...

The OP hasn't told us as to whether the drive is in a USB3.1 gen2 enclosure, or if it's in a thunderbolt enclosure. NVME drives run on the warm/hot side (compared with older 2.5" SATA SSDs, which ...

IF you're using Big Sur, the Maps.app may reside within Apple's "secure system partition", and thus may be "un-deletable". If its icon is in the dock, you can still remove that if you wish.
