Yes, you should be able to.

This is how I did it:

1) Get a block of wood (so you don't damage the axle) and place it on the axle.

2) Hit the block of wood with a hammer.

3) One bearing should come out with the axle.

4) Take the bearing off the axle and put the axle back in the hub.

5) Hit the axle from the opposite side so the other bearing pops out with the axle.

For putting the bearings back in:

1) Place a bearing on the hub where the bearing goes.

2) Tap the bearing back in making sure it is going in square.

3) Place the axle in the hub.

4) Put the other bearing in using a socket (slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the bearing, but still touching the outer metal part of the bearing) to slide over the axle, again making sure it goes in square.

Hope this helps

Any questions fire away!!
