Not in general. A kinetic striker would require as much energy to reach the satellite as the satellite used to get there. Something fancier, like a targeted laser, to my knowledge doesn't exist with anything like the wattage needed to punch through atmo and still have effective kill on anything that far out (assuming you could solve the targeting problem to resolve the beam that tightly in the first place). |

It is true that spacex can put a significant amount of satllites in orbit witha single launch though, so it probably evens it out.
