Replace the rear main seal without pulling the engine?

My previously completely leak-free 93CE has sprung a slight leak at the rear (belt pulley) main seal at 109,000 miles. It's not losing enough oil to be a big problem but the oil gets sprayed all over the pulleys and belts and is making a mess.
I think I recall that the seal could be replaced without pulling the engine but it looks like it would be quite difficult given the limited access down there.
Any thoughts?
