Suppres year, not just suppress author

Is it possible to exclude the year when inserting a reference, but still have the author names be extracted manually from Zotero? Right now if I need to write something like "As Smith and colleagues (2009) have shown, ..", I type the names manually (and often make typos!), then insert a citation with suppresed author names. It would be good if one could just insert the author names as a citation (Word field), and supress the year, rather than this just being possible the other way around.
