Short answer: Yes.
In my example of cooking LR, there is no light therefore no algae. That's why HA infested LR turn bone white. Obviously you cant do that for your display tank. But theoretically you can have nutrients and no algae.

In your above equation, you will always have light, so if you want no algae, you have to reduce nutrients.
