Moderators can indeed remove synonym relationships. (They can also add synonyms or swap tag synonym relationships, and merge tags together if appropriate.)

@V2Blast I meant properly undoing the synonymization including restoring the previous tags on all questions (so that the questions that were of tag A have tag A again and questions that had tag B have tag B again).

Synonymization on its own doesn't change the tags on existing questions; tags already on a question will remain as is. However, if you attempt to add the synonym to a question after they've been synonymized, then the destination tag will be added to it instead. (Merging tags is what removes the merged-away tag entirely and replaces it with the merge-destination tag.)
