Is it possible to eat less cals and still gain muscle?

Hi,

In the past two years, I've put on about 10+ kg by working with a personal trainer. I am 29 yo, 165 cm and ~71 kg. I don't really want to gain any more weight --- just muscle. Should I maintain my current macro regimen (2700 cal.: 337g carbs, 60g fats, 202g proteins)? Or can I start eating less and still gain muscle?

When I checked the macro calc on bodybuilding.com, based on my body stats and a goal of maintaining my current weight, I should have a macro ratio of 40% carbs / 30% protein / 30% fats.

PROTEIN: 165 g per day (661 calories)
CARBS: 220 g per day (881 calories)
FATS: 73 g per day (661 calories)
TOTAL CALORIES: 2202
