Hi michatmaster,
You *can* lift the limit, yes. The Export Manager is very CPU intensive - it does a great deal of work to generate the entire contents of a View / form, so memory can become an issue.
If you have access to the server's php.ini file, try updating the memory_limit directive to something higher than it is now. If you don't have access, perhaps ask your hosting provider on how you can do a customization for your site / folder. Some hosts have the server configured to let you define your own php.ini file in a folder that overrides specific settings like that one. Other hosts let you do that, but only by including the php.ini file in a cgi-bin folder. Other (for security reasons) don't let you do that at all.
If all else fails, you may have to resort to exporting the entire content in pieces (e.g. creating Views that show date ranges, or by specific content).
Good luck!
