I think that if you take care to open the casing carefully (watch out for the spring system) it should be possible. I've had 2 of these for more than 10 years, and as winter approaches I take them in and periodically, once they're completely unrolled, I spray the inner shaft and the winding system with VD40.
In my opinion, the cost of the replacement tube with the integrated drum will be more expensive as a spare part than the complete system on Galaxus. You can also contact Gardena service for official information.
