Yes you can. Ben Burner did so using a 12 ton 3 jaw gear puller. He used a spacer/socket to push the old/new bearing into the idle pulley. He has a video on how to do so and you will get the idea how it was done. I haven't perform the replacement yet but when I do that video will be a reference. He used the same gear puller to replace the AC clutch bearing using a socket to push the new bearing in. It's too bad he doesn't create new content anymore.
