Not unless the driver wants to be deinstalled.  Even then, it could
prove to be a pain.

>Can I install a driver with out rebooting?

Yes.  There is a program called DEVLOD that comes with
_Undocumented_DOS_ that does this.  Note that even its authors won't
claim 100% success rate.

>Where can I read about this?
