Absolutely. You only need to replace the compressor if it needs replacement. Just get the system evacuated (you can have this done not only at a shop, but your local trade school or community college can do it for you, as well, and probably much cheaper), and you can replace the evaporator coil. Would be a good idea to replace the accumulator or receiver-drier (which one you have depends on whether you have a fixed orifice tube or thermal expansion valve system), as well, as they contain a desiccant which becomes saturated rather quickly once exposed to atmospheric air.
