    Yes, it is possible, I recall doing one or two when I worked in phone repair. But in all honesty I can't recall in detail how to do it, as it's been quite a while. If you're really confident about dismantling devices and doing the work yourself, it's not as bad as doing a slider or a flip phone, and you can get a genuine housing for about £25 quid on ebay, but I would recommend going to a nearby dealer and seeing if they offer a refurbishment service. I used to charge around £30-£40 for a complete new housing and fitting, and if you take it to a shop at least you have some peace of mind and guarantees if there are any problems.
