Yes, but they are actually axle bearings.
Remove the wheel, remove the axle shaft, remove the hub nut, pull off the hub.. the bearings will come off at this point. Drive out the races with a race driver and install new races.

Mount the hub, install the outer bearing, secure with the nut and washer. Tight is tight.
