No. Stewards do not decide. This is a golden rule.

Some stewards would personally be happy to desysop this user. But they
must not do it. There is no emergency, we are not talking about some
compromised sysop account deleting the en:wp main page over and over.

If you want to change steward rules, see
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Rewriting/Stewards_policy . But I
doubt you will find many people to write in the policy that they can
desysop who they want without any community decision. And by community
decision, I am not talking about a few users agreeing on a mailing
list.
