Absolutely. You need to layer, and take off, put on as needed.
Under Armour makes good "wicking" layers that move sweat away from your body, to be absorbed by outer layers, or evaporated by air if you work your layers right.
And I agree 100 percent with taking clothes off to go to bed. And, don't forget to remove the socks. I crawled into my sleeping bag tent camping in the snow once, and forgot to take off my socks. I woke up a few hours later and my feet were numb.
