Yes.

As addictions are diseases, they can be cured as such, through the use of spells like remove disease or by succeeding at Fortitude saves over time.

Yes. At least one Adventure Path states this outright.

Spoiler: The Adventure Path in question is...:

Serpent's Skull.

Spoiler: The situation is...:

Aerys Mavato is trying to get over her alcoholism, and remove disease is one of the stated methods for doing so.

Good to know. It makes hero's feast even more awesome and items that produce it's effects.

It use the piss off the heavy drinker in our kingmaker game that he was cured of alcohol addiction every time he was Healed.

[Goth Guru]

As it also gets rid of filth fever, it's necessary.

Cure insanity gets rid of psychological addiction, so if the character uses alcohol as a crutch, cure disease won't stop them from drinking every time they encounter an old one or undead horror.
