Answer

Yes, this is possible:
  1. Move volume to a surviving node
  2. Ensure that epsilon is assigned to a node of surviving HA pair:
::> set diag
::*> cluster show
 
If epsilon is assigned to a node on HA pair that is shut down, reassign it to a different node first:
 
  1. Remove epsilon from original node:
::*>cluster modify -node original_node_name -epsilon false
 
  1. Assign epsilon to a different node:
::*>cluster modify -node new_node_name -epsilon true
