I would not because of the globs others have mentioned.
More than that though (the globs would eventually go away), I would worry about ink on the paper. A lot of inks nowadays are soy-based so that is not a problem, but you never know.
Also, I don't wash quilts a lot. I'd hate to wash it a bunch just to get rid of the paper.

The larger pieces of paper actually tears off quite easily. A light misting should remove stubborn pieces but I wouldn't worry about little pieces. Old sheets make good foundation blocks in place of the paper.

I would definitely take the paper off - I have used water soluable papers in the past - for a dresden plate paper-pieced wall hanging/table topper. I left the paper in when it was quilted. The longarmer didn't have any issues with it, but it did take several washings for it to come out - I was mortified the first time I pulled it out of the washer - I put it right back in and washed it several times on the gentle cycle until it was all gone.
