I find "impossible" hard to believe. Perhaps it's so difficult that it's not worth the opportunity cost though.

You may have to remove the disk or use a JTAG programmer, or heck... maybe even re-solder something.

The more nuanced question in these situations isn't "is it possible" but "is it economically viable".
