Yes, you can use a list comprehension to filter the data.

a = [1,2,3,4,5]
print([x for x in a if 3 <= x <= 5])

Something like this should do the trick

[z for z in [1,2,3,4,5,6,7] if not 3<=z<=5]


Out[2]:
[1, 2, 6, 7]

If you want to make it more flexible can replace with variables depending on your needs which is simply done:

alist=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7]
lowerbound=3
upperbound=5
resultlist=[z for z in alist if not lowerbound<=z<=upperbound]
#result you want stored as 'resultlist'
