Hi there,

No, sorry, there is no way to remove these plugs with out first removing the manifold, this said, the manifold will remove with out much fuss.

Here is how the job of changing the spark plug is done correctly. You will need to remove the upper intake manifold only which is not bad to do. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
