You have to remove the hub, which means disconnecting the hub from the ball-joint, tie-rod end, strut, brakes, etc. If you get past this part, the next step is removing the bearing from the hub. A hydraulic press makes the bearing removal a lot easier, but it is possible to drive the bearing in and out, without using a press.
The hardest part is putting the hub back on to the strut and ball-joint.
EDIT: I mistakenly used the word hub to describe both the knuckle and hub. I believe the part that connects to the strut, ball-joint, etc should be referred to as a knuckle, and not as a hub. The knuckle and the hub are two parts, and not one, as I implied earlier. My mistake. EDIT
