Depends on your plan but you can opt out of your 401K at any time but you will pay taxes on the balance then pay a 10% penalty on the pre-tax amount. For example, if your balance is $10K, you will pay $1K penalty, then pay taxes on $10K which might be as high as $3000. So you end up with $6000 and probably won't be able to participate in the 401K plan for another year.
