No.
You might be able to bring the augmented matrix into *some* division free
form but not having to divide doen't mean you don't have to care about
whether the algorithm multiplies those matrix entries from the left or
from the right. Besides, backsubstituting would leave the integral domain
anyway and as soon as one enters the corresponding quotient field one
would need to have an inverse handy -- likely for every denominator that
appears during backsubstituting.
I am not saying that it cannot be done. I don't know. But the algorithms
provided in class matrix are not sufficient.
