There's no automated way to set a color as transparent.
However, try Select > Color Range
and choose "Yellows" from the drop down menu. Then create a layer mask based on that selection. You get some decent results.
It's not perfect. But it's then a matter of adjusting levels on the mask a bit and correcting for the color halos, just general refining.
Simple quick maskMask created after color range selection.... (no refinement)
