Long answer: <G29> states that robots may not be in possession of a trackball belonging to an opposing alliance, and a 10 pt penalty may be assessed for each violation. However, herding opponents' trackballs or removing them from the overpass is okay.
Short answer: no.
However, if the opponent's trackball leaves the field of play, there is no penalty that I can find. If you can figure out a way to remove the trackballs from play without possessing them, it may be an interesting strategy (although the refs will reintroduce them as soon as they can)
