Sure, but it depends on which vehicle you have.

What vehicle?
If you are talking about a CTD, yes, kinda, you have to take out the bolts and tilt the compressor down, so you can get puller in there to pull the pulley.
Need special wrench to hold pulley/clutch face still while removing nut in center, i think its called a spanner wrench.
becareful not to loose any washers(shims) when pulling assembly off shaft. Shims are behind the assembly.

Yes, it is CTD. Again sorry for the lack of info. Thanks for the help. Is spanner wrench fairly accesible ( where do you find one)
