Nope. you can change the propshaft seals that way, but not the driveshaft seals.

When I do a L/U seal job, I do them all. Get yourself a factory manual and follow the step by step procedure and you won't have any trouble. It does take some special tools. A special puller to pull the bearing carrier, pullers or punches to remove the old seals and a press to install the new seals.
