Yes you can but you will need to remove the axles as well. You will lose some grease up the axle tubes. Is the diff blown or just an axle seal. These are at the diff centre end of the tubes and the diff centre needs to be removed to replace them. two person job using the correct size socket and a long broom handle through the opposite axle tube. Make sure they get put in the right way around as well
