Our club plays that you may rearrange the cards on the table during your meld, up until the time you discard (and as long as there is NO TABLE TALK from anyone else at the table.) Once a discard has been laid, no changes can be made.

The technical answer is no. Some people will create a ’table rule” allowing it, but once a card is played it is supposed to remain.
