Short answer is yes. What happens is, you reveal the green maneuver, perform it, and remove the stress token before you get to the Perform Action step (which is where it checks for stress to determine whether you can perform the aciton). The Phases/Order Of Gameplay page is a great resource, if you're interested in learning a bit more.

A bit more info, just cause I love to gush about cool combos... :D

Note that things could trigger on each step, allowing you to do interesting moves. For example, BB-8 plus Push The Limit (say, on an x-wing) lets you reveal a green maneuver, perform a barrel roll, push the limit to take another action and gain a stress token, perform the green maneuver, remove the stress token you just got, and then perform your normal action. That's a barrel roll and 2 other actions when you perform a green maneuver -- very potent!

Another example is Advanced Sensors and a red maneuver. You get to perform your action (say, a focus or barrel roll), then perform your maneuver and get your stress. Then next turn perform a green maneuver, remove the stress, and take your action normally. Being able to load your action on the front or back of the maneuver (and still get an action on a turn where you need to do a red maneuver) gives you a lot of power to respond to events as they play out (e.g. another ship not turning where you expected).

So if you're up to it, scanning through the steps and becoming somewhat familiar with them can pay big dividends. :)  But it's pretty dense if you're just getting started.

Enjoy!
