This is of course possible, the gstreamer ./configure script allows to
disable most of the dependency-heavy features. ./configure --help list
all possibilities. This for example is the configuration i use:

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \
    --disable-static --enable-experimental \
    --disable-schemas-install \
	--disable-gconf \
	--disable-hal \
	--disable-dv1394 \
	--disable-pulse \
	--disable-esd \
	--disable-esdtest \
	--disable-sunaudio \
	--disable-osx_audio \
	--disable-osx_video \
	--disable-flac \
	--disable-gst_v4l2 \
    --with-package-name="GStreamer Good Plugins (Archlinux)" \
    --with-package-origin="http://www.archlinux.org/" || return 1
