No, unless you are a surviving spouse. A non spouse beneficiary can only move funds by doing a direct transfer to a new custodian. If you receive a distribution, the entire distribution will be taxable and there is no way to fix that. Be sure not to request a distribution unless you do not intend to roll it over.
