Yes, you can by-pass the clutch switch if you want to.
It's not hard to replace, and you can likely get a new one from G Spec Performance
A better way to "test" it is to put the key in the ignition and turn it to the "start" position without pressing in the clutch. Then press in the clutch all the way. The engine should turn over immediately when the clutch pedal hits the floor. If it takes some time for anything to happen you can suspect the clutch pedal switch, or the power/grounds to the starter, or in very rare cases the starter itself is the culprit.
