1999 Dodge Caravan Head change in chassis?

Engine Mechanical problem
1999 Dodge Caravan 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 140000 miles

I have the 3.0 liter Mitsubishi engine. I know that I have poor compression on the rear cylinder of the left bank (front bank in vehicle).

My question is: Can that head be removed from the vehicle for valve work, without pulling the whole engine out of the van?

Terry, I just reread my post to you. I ment to say, "you should be able to remove it WITHOUT removing the engine". Sorry about that.
