Nearly Impossible. You would have to fabricate tools to do it.

Better off taking the head off.

Why do you need to change them?

Are you 100% sure it is the Valve seals leaking and not the turbo going bad?
It could also be a bad vaccum line for the Vent box setup broke. That will cause the car to suck oil into the system and burn it.
