Yes.
Create a new user (you may need to give them sudo access).
It would be best also to get their public ssh key and permit access only with that.
Then remove it afterwards.
Now- important to note if you allow password based login (Or either way) you should also check that they have not made any others users or changed any other users passwords.
Make sure you trust them 😶
