Is it possible to relieve some of the pressure out of the front and rear shocks??

The rear shocks are sealed like on a car... the fronts can be adjusted I have heard, but it is a huge amount of work. They hold 50cc of no. 3 oil.
Easier just to replace them with adjustable shocks...

If they are like plain old telescoping forks, you can vary the oil level and the preload spacer to change preload and damping can be altered by using different viscosity("weight") fork oil.
The rears are only spring preload adjustable. The internal pressure is in there to reduce cavitation and has little to no effect on preload or ride height. So even if you could let some out, it would probably not give you the results you're looking for.
What are you looking to do?
