I guess so. If you wanted to fake a reaction you could choose to, so the opposite must be true too, right? Choice happens at different levels, and most the choices we make happen at a level outside the conscious mind so quickly we wouldn't register them as choices
So I chose not to be allergic? Interesting! Why did you choose to be allergic? Are you stupid? Is it a fetish?
