Nothing is impossible, but it will be a lot harder doing it on the car.

And you will have to get/make a tool to press the bushings on the car.

If you are changing the large hourglass shaped bushings on the trailing arms, removing the old cracked deteriorated bushings will be fairly easy, what you have to worry about is whether the inner metal sleeve of the bushing has rusted to the bolt.

It is sometimes necessary to cut the bolt to remove the arm.
