Before someone who has actually done the job comes along to give you the definitive answer, this is what RAVE says.

The answer is basically yes, but first the lower crankcase has to be removed (11 bolts) then the bearing ladder (16 bolts). Before that you'll have the oil pick-up strainer, crankshaft timing gear and oil seals (front & rear) and oil pump on the bench.
