I've replaced the boots while the drive shafts are in the car. The last time I had trouble getting the proper larger size outer boots. Every place wanted to sell a smaller boot that would be very difficult to get over the outer C/V joint of a 1997 turbo automatic which has a larger outer joint. Ended up getting the proper boots from a dealer.
Think it is easier to disconnect the ball joint and pull the shaft out of the inner driver, remove the tripod bearing, then slide the boots off and onto the shaft. No rassling with getting the shaft out of the hub and no chance of hammering near the hub bearing.
