Evidently you can:
From AutoZone.com

3.1L & 3.4L Engines

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the precautions section.
2. Drain the engine oil.
3. Evacuate the A/C system.
4. Remove or disconnect the following:
   
   Negative battery cable
   Accessory drive belt
   Right front wheel
   Right splash shield
   Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Wheel Speed (WSS) sensor from the right subframe
   Right lower ball joint from the steering knuckle
   Right outer tie rod end
   A/C compressor without disconnecting the lines
   Evaporator-to-accumulator A/C line
   Flywheel cover
   Right side engine cradle bolts
   Crankshaft balancer
   Starter motor
   Oil pan

This is perhaps trivializing the procedure, but, you get the idea.
