On the face of it, this sounds like a pretty good idea. But I'm not so sure it really is. You might end up sucking oil out of the cylinders, leaving them dry at the next start-up. Granted, the oil in the cylinders would be replaced quickly, but it just sounds risky to me. It's one of those ideas that just sounds wrong, but you're not sure why.
I guess I'd just try to poke a rag down there and sop it up.
Answer
Yes. Just leave the plugs in. Although you would find it easier to just manually suck it up a clear narrow bore tube, making sure you don't swallow any.

Why would there be oil in the spark plug wells on a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue?
Valve cover gasket may be leaking oil and dripping down into the spark plug wells. if gasket looks okay, try tightening the bolts on the valve cover, otherwise, replace the gasket. Gasket from the dealer will come with 3 rings and the camshaft housing cover gasket.cost around 50.00 . Because the front plug wells are right next to the oil fill port and if your not carefull when you add oil than it spills and runs down under the coil pack and into the plug wells
