No question is a stupid question.

1- to certain exctent, yes you could cause premature failure on the bearing with a bad driveshaft. But its very minimal. You should rather worry about driveshaft breaking when launching.

2- you can remove the whole hub, disconnect upper and lower balljoints and take the 32mm axle nut off. Then replace the bearing with a press. You will need a press...no way in hell you are hammering the thing out unless you use a sledge hammer or something. But even if you get it out, you wanna press the new bearing in straight and hammer just wont do it. What i used to do, is get a bearing, take the hub off and bring it to a shop. Pay 20$ for them to swap bearings and then i reinstall myself. Save on cost.
