If you are talking about front crankshaft seal then yes you can do this without pulling the motor out. You need to remove all belts and fan. Then the harmonic balancer. The seal is actually in the aluminium front housing not the block.
Not a hard job and it takes about 2 hours depending on how fast you can work.
The seal can be bought from Nissan for $21.00 - I dont have the part number handy.
