No, heating an installed ring gear will heat up the flywheel as well as the
ring gear.  Since both of them are steel they will both expand at the same
rate.
What you will end up with is a very hot flywheel that still has a ring gear
on it.  Not the result you are looking for.  :-)  It has been years since I
did a B flywheel, but cut with the hacksaw and hit it with a bloody big
chisel and hammer always worked for me.
