Yes you can manually downshift, but like Route 66 said the transmission will not downshift until the engine RPM's are safe. You may have to use the service brakes to slow it down some before it downshifts.
Yes you can get it reprogrammed, but you may not like it going down to 2nd. Many with this program have changed it to only go to 4th instead.
The way you are setup now if you want additional exhaust braking you can always manually downshift to 3rd or 2nd.
