I have never cleared that perticular code myself, but I have cleared the one and only trouble code I have read with my MicroTuner.
I had a "incorrect gear" (or something to that effect) code the one time I used the tuner to read DTC's. I have larger than stock tires, so I assumed that was the cause.
I have yet to check the codes again to see if it has returned, though. I am not the expert on the tuner, but I would think that it will clear any DTC you have.
I am sure Mike T. will be along tomorrow to say for sure.

Hi Superscrewed,
Welcome to F-150 Online!
The Micro Tuner will read & clear OBD-II DTC's (PO), it's not going to clear manufacturer-specific non-OBD-II codes (P1).
With many vehicles, after repairing the problem you can simply disconnect the battery for a few minutes & clear any codes.
Remember, the Micro Tuner is about your *powertrain*, not about the braking system, or airbags, or anything else. It's fully OBD-II compatible, and will read and clear *any* OBD-II DTC.
Good luck!
