It is often possible to vary bail conditions where there is a legitimate reason to do so. Sometimes the Crown will consent to the change. Other times there will be a contested hearing. Either way a bail variation must be approved by the Court.

It is important to follow your conditions until they are actually changed. Otherwise you could be charged with breaching your conditions. A "breach" charge is another Criminal Code charge that could result in a criminal record and will often make it more difficult to resolve your case favorably.
