When doing Availability Report,
is it possible to deduct the downtime caused by system maintenance ?

If you do it in advance, yes. Ie. define DOWNTIME settings for
the hosts covering your regular outages (e.g. the scheduled reboot every
Saturday morning), or disable the host/service when doing maintenance.

Periods with a "blue" (disabled) status are not included in the
availability calculations.
