NO.
In most state,it requires 5 out of 8 ready-ness data fill up on the computer momory.
The entire memory will CLEAR when you try to clear the MAF code.
You need to fix the MAF sensor first.
The inexpensive fix is to clean the MAF sensor with CRC MAF cleaner or electronic part clearer from Radio Shack.
Do not forget to clean the contacts too.
The correct fix is to replace the MAF.
Make sure the check engine light does not come back.

To fill the REQUIRED data into the computer you have to complete few drive cycles.
To keep this post short,just drive the car for 2+ days (10 miles min.) with mix highway and local driving.
If you want to be safe drive it for 4+ days (20 miles min.) before return to smog test station.
Drive more will help fill up the required data fields from the smog station.
DO NOT reset the computer.
IT WILL CLEAR the stored data!
Please post more information on the comment window. I will follow up on it later.
The O2 sensor located on the exhaust system must be checked.
Sensor and wiring must be tested using a multimeter.
Same thing for the MAF sensor located on air intake.
