So, earthquake is when two plates keep piling on each other and building stress/pressure that reaches a critical point and discharges all this built up energy. Is it possible do preemptively discharge this pressure while it’s still not big enough to cause serious damage? Like, with bombs or something. And if yes, why nobody does it?

The answer is you can.
The issue is actually doing it.
In practice it would involve digging a literal grand canyon but far, far deeper.
The new mega crack we dug would be a few miles wide, hundreds or thousands of miles long, and dozens to hundreds of miles deep with a rough maximum of close to 1800 miles deep.
