Can they be removed without removing bumper .Want to install Ford ranger lifts nudge bar. Which doesn't involve removing bumper mounts to mounting brackets for tow hooks

Highly doubtful. There are two bolts in front which MAY be reachable but there is another way in the back that attaches directly to frame.

Pretty sure you can get to those nuts through wheelhouse fabric liners. No need to remove bumper.
That is probably true. I think it would be best to remove all the fasteners for the tow hook after removing the felt wheel well liner. Just more visibility and accessibility.

This picture was taken with the passenger's front tire off and the felt liner pulled back. Should be able to get that rear nut off the tow hook with tire off and felt liner pulled back.
