Yes,it can be done where all transmission shops and even some national chain oil change centers have the equipment to connect to the transmission coolant lines that go through the radiator and actually "flush and replace" the old fluid with brand new. This operation usually takes less than one hour and can be done "while you wait". Usual cost is about $70 to $100. If you wish to do it your self, there is available an apparatus that will "suck" out your old fluid by means of a tube inserted into your transmission fill tube. However,this method is not only costly for the vacuum pump but also will leave a substantial amount of fluid in your converter which only leaves the job "half-done". Better off to take it to a fluid change center.
