Is this possible within Maya? I'd like to light something using an HDRI file, but either not have it show up, or be able to remove the background via an alpha channel inside Maya. Thanks

In the 'image based lighting' tab of the MentalRay rollout- the attribute editor on the right has a tab called 'render stats' where you can make such adjustments for render time...
