I'm assuming you mean for the serpetine belt? If so, yes you can. It's held on by a single bolt I think. It's generally good practice to change the tensioner when you change the belt. It's not too pricey.

The belt tensioner on your 95 escort pushes the belt to close to the power steering pump the new tensioner does the same thing why?

either the tensioner (spring loaded to keep the belt tight) has a bad spring (and you will see a broken spring) or it's installed incorrectly after replacing it. Compare belts (old/new) which should be a few inches different.

On vehicles with a single serpentine belt, tension is usually self-adjusted automatically via a spring loaded tensioner. No additional adjustment is necessary. If the belt is slipping or loose, then it needs replacing. Also check the tensioner bearings and replace the tensioner if necessary.
