Can I choose not to block and take the life loss instead?

The designers answered this on BGG, and it fits the rulebook.

Yes, unless the attacker uses Hunter. Without Hunter you choose whether to block, with which creature, or to lose 1 life. With Hunter, the attacker names the blocker and it must block.
