Yes you can, at least on a GW6 Classic. I found the setting on the watch in Settings>Security and privacy>Wrist detection. The same setting doesn't seem to be available from my phone (not a Samsung phone).

I find this to be an excellent addition for reasons other than tattoos. Sometimes I want to take the watch off, set it in a visible location, and still want to see notifications.
