Yes there is. It is located in the fuse box on the drivers side of the dash.
But be cautious with even doing that. Some control modules maintain power even after the power is pulled, in case you were to have a crash and all electrical power cut out. Just not sure how long that is. I read this in one of GM's tech brochures they use to teach techs about general air bag operations. Once I get the answer from the technician who likely is the guy who is fixing mine, I'll confirm what has to be done. Not the Camaro, but another Chevy model.

WARNING: SDM maintains sufficient voltage to cause air bag deployment for up to 10
minutes after ignition switch is turned OFF, battery is disconnected, or
fuse powering SDM is removed. In order to begin servicing immediately,
inflator modules must be removed from deployment loop.
