Well check with your DMV where I live if you fail, spend $200+ to get it to pass and it still fails they ignore it.

Yes, and no. Yes, you can replace the compressor yourself. No you can't do it with out the shop. They have to at least recharge the system to make it work. You should also have them recover the refrigerant before you work on it.
