It's possible. There is a tool, which consists of a special adaptor
to pressurize the cylinder with compressed air (to hold the valve up)
and a special tool to press down the valve spring retainer so the
keepers can be removed.
That said, it's often the case that the reason the valve guide seals
go bad is that the guides themselves are worn, and allowing too much
slop and exhaust blowby.
As for sources, I'd guess some place like Zalenda, Schley Samstag
Sales, Baum Tools, or Assenmacher specialty tools has such a tool.
