... yes. That's how most keep them from exploding. You just move out of their way and they won't explode. Or, if you can get them in melee range before they try their suicide attack, feel free to melee them to death as they will try to back off before attacking you - rendering them harmless but very annoying to hit, but certain stances can help with that.
