It's possible. You'd have to heat them up and split them but you'd be better off buying a set of morettes because splitting headlights isn't that easy and if you get it wrong, you'd have just wasted a set of angel headlights.

Your best bet would be to put them in an oven as that heats the glue uniformly. A heat gun would also work.

Yes, softens the adhesive that keeps the front (clear) and back together.
Might also be a metal clip or two to pry off first.
