Hi there. Yes it can. If you remove the mat you can see the 3 holes for the screws that hold the cover in place. I actually ordered the parts from VW using a GTI Vin months ago only to find that I received a plain cover version.The part numbers are correct so I don't know why it came in a different style.
These are the part numbers and I paid around 50 Euro:
Cover: 5H2864571ZNX
Mat: 5H2863330B9B9
I am waiting for a response from VW parts but still no answer.
On the left is what it should look like and on the right the part I received. It fits perfectly but the one on the left is more premium, black with an aluminium lip.

the white and blue circles where the part is screwed from the inside out.

If you do decide to order the parts let me know if they send you the correct ones ;)

Update: ordered the part from LLLParts and received the correct one...thank God:):)
Use a hardened plastic tool remover like in the photo.
So remove the Usb trim(1) and then the Dsg trim (2) on the right and then the one on the left(3) (they are clipped in) and mount the cover with 3x3.5mm 16-17mm length screws ( I used screws used for the plug outlets;) )] ( You need to take extra care with the left side trim on removal and installing it.. don't force anything and study it well when reinstalling it as not to break the clip inserts)
Better solution would be to remove the whole center consolle which makes it a lot easier to work...
So now I have a GT consolle with the cover and dsg gear stick with heartbeat effect and red light..:p

Yes they are identical… i went to VW parts division and showed them the part … still scratching their heads😂😂
They cant understand why the part they ordered is different from the one i recieved from LLLparts.
1 thing i noticed is the production dates: the wrong cover was produced in 09/2019 while the correct one was produced in 03/2021.
