can i delete photos from icloud but keep them on mac instead

If I want to free up iCloud storage, can I save the photos to my MacBook Air and then delete them from my iCloud once they are stored? Also will I still be able to access the photos once I delete them from the cloud, if I save them onto my computer?

MacBook Air (2020 or later)
