Wondering if Asus TUF FA507XI Palmrest can be replaced without replacing keyboard and touchpad.

Is it possible to replace the palmrest (maybe known as top cover) only without replacing the keyboard and touchpad (having to buy a new one)?

I had the hinges broken after a drop and the screws on both the bottom and palmrest (top case) are broken which is why I have to replace the palmrest, however! would like to preserve the old keyboard, touchpad and WiFi antenna.

If so, how? I would appreciate a reference video if possible.

I am out of warranty and have performed minute repairs on other laptops in the past, so I would like to do this by myself.
