Not easily and it is very time consuming. Depending on the vehicle you are working on. You must take the head cover off then take the cam shafts out that should let you see the pistons. You must then (not all the time but very very likely) take the engine completely of your car. Take the pistons you wish to replace and replace them then put it back together. The Manuel for your car will explain in much much further detail.
