Yes. You'll need a 17mm allen / hex socket and a very long breaker bar, which you'd need to change the bearing anyway.

Torque on these things is something mad like 200Nm + 180°. I've never managed the 180° though - my 900mm bar is bending before it gets there, but that seems to be sufficient since I don't have any problems with them coming loose. Also they are supposed to be stretch bolts, but I reuse them a couple of times without any problems. Decent bearing kits come with new bolts.

I stick a few wheel bolts in the disc and then the handbrake should hold it enough to loosen the big bolt.
