I think it would be tough without removing the wheel. (Maybe could be done if the car was up on a lift?)

I should qualify that a little. I was working on only the two cylinders just behind the passenger seat---switching the coil packs to track down the source of a misfire in one of them. I don't know how I could have gotten to them without pulling off the passenger side rear wheel. I also partially removed the plastic underbody shield in that area. Easy to do, and it made access to that cylinder closest to the passenger seat a lot easier.

I didn't mess with the driver side at all, so I can't speak to that. I assume it would be similar, ie easier with the wheel off.
