No, unless they are air ride shocks. Removing the standard shock absorbers then driving the vehicle could lead to a dangerous situation. You may loose control of the vehicle over certain road conditions.
Jack up the car. Unscrew two bolts in the rear bearing arms, then unscrew the top bolts. You will need to take out the back of the rear seat in order to get to these. Then the shocks can be taken out and new installed.
to change the shocks on the rear of the jaguar XJ-6, you need a spring compressor. compress the spring, loosen the top mount plate from under side of car. drop the axle as far as you can. undo the top mounting, then the lower. the car will have to be raised far enough to allow the shock to be removed and the replacement installed.
Bad shocks or struts is one possibility.
The springs in the rear support the weight of the car, and give it a smooth ride along with the shocks.

To install rear shocks on a 1990 Nissan 300ZX, first, lift the rear of the car and securely support it on jack stands. Remove the rear wheels for better access, then unbolt the old shocks from the top and bottom mounting points. Install the new shocks by positioning them in place and tightening the bolts to the manufacturer’s specifications. Finally, reattach the wheels, lower the car, and ensure everything is secure before taking it for a test drive.
A squeaky noise can come from the back of your car if your shocks are damaged. Sometimes shocks can dry rot.

Install the new shocks by reversing the process, ensuring the bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications, and finally, reattach the wheels.
Turns the airshocks on/off, the only time you need it is if you're putting the car up on the lift. If you do not turn them off before lifting, the rear shocks will compress and the car will appear to have blown rear shocks until you start it and the airpump kicks on.
Defective rear shocks. Loose exhaust components.
shocks/struts have nothing to do with how high the car rides.... you have bad springs, or too much junk in the trunk...
It may very well have shocks in the rear or it may have the Air Ride system. Crawl under the car and look see.
