I need to shrink a virtual machine that is running on an ESXi server. Is this possible?
The easiest way would be to use the Converter tool to V2V the VM and re-size the disk during conversion.

Yep V2V it or thin provision the disks.
Storage vMotion it to another lun and thin provision it then you have no downtime.
