Nope... bolt gotta go in with the bellhousing. Really bad design in my opinion. You *might* be able to use a piece of all-thread and a nut on either end... might be able to get away with that.
Last transmission swap I did was in dreadful weather (sub-zero) in January, and I got frustrated trying to muscle the transmission in with the bolt in place, so I left it out. It'll work fine with just one bolt, but I'd try to get something in there ASAP.
