Yes, you can change the maintainer in the DESCRIPTION file.

Do you have access now?

A maintainer designation is required with an actively maintained email. This email will be used for contact regarding an issues that arise with your package in the future.
>>> Only one person should be listed in the Maintainer field to ensure a single point of contact. This person by default will have commit access to the git repository on git.bioconductor.org. Commit access can be given to other developers by request on the bioc-devel mailing list. Another option is to add collaborators to the github repository. This approach enables development by many but restricts push access to git.bioconductor.org.
