Yes, that is possible through orthodontic treatment to extrude posteriors. I advise visiting an orthodontist to check cephalometric values and how much correction is required and whether is it possible through brace treatment.

I would take the guard to the dentist and have them adjust it in the area of the front teeth. Sometimes a night guard will fit so tightly, it will cause discomfort in some of the teeth.
