Removing an executable while it runs

Hello,
I would like to remove an executable from the file-system while it is
running and
get all the blocks back immediately, not after the end of the program.
Is this possible ?
From what I understand, the inode is not released until the program
ends. Do all the
file-systems behave the same way ?

Thank you for your help.
