Oh sure. Personally, I would just break the rule and drop the transmit power on my router, banking on them not bothering to enforce it. They'll most likely give a warning first, especially since the dorm rep said it would be fine. I have broken plenty of dorm rules, yet never got as much as an email because I made sure my rule-breaking didn't bother other people so nobody reported it.
A lot of times, those rules are in place because someone ruined things for everyone and they added it so they have something to point to. If you don't cause problems with others, it shouldn't be an issue.
