No. You need to remove or at least seperate the gearbox from the engine to replace clutch and release bearing. I can't see you doing it with the shafts still connected. What I can see you doing is damaging the needle roller bearings on the end of the nearside driveshaft which could possibly leave the gearbox in an unusable condition.
If your going to do it properly, remove the engine properly. Also replace the cambelt roller bearing and guide bearing
no worrys will do now the work starts lol
