NO, they are throw-away. There are no bearings or anything inside, just worn plastic.
Some Rule pumps have removable motor housings. But they cost about as much as a whole pump. I have a dual inlet rule and kept a spare motor on board, but I am getting way more than one season out of them. Mine is also been discontinued, so once I go through that last motor replacement, on to something else.
