If you are talking about the forward drive shaft seal coming out of the forward crank case, no, can not be replaced easy. Crank case has to be split to get to it.

I have to replace a seal on the rear axle!!!!!!!!!!! The seal is where the propeller shaft attachesto the rear axle!!!!!!!! Via a slip joint connnection with a boot.... So to keep a long story short, is there any chance at all the seal can be replaced w/o dissambling the motor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don`t understand your terminology. The seals where the rear drive line exit the crank case, you might be able to change it. You would have to dig the seal out around drive line. Might not happen and then you`re stuck. Usually, these are beat out from the inside of the case.
