I don't think so, but I don't know for sure. I think the stem is integrated into the unit. If you find out differently, let us know.

The valve core inside the stem is most likely replaceable. Those are usually just standard generic Schrader valves that screw right in and out. Auto parts stores and even WalMart carry little kits with replacement cores and a little tool to remove and install them.

Be sure to let the air out completely before unscrewing a valve core and wear eye protection or at least turn your face away. Unscrewing one with pressure remaining behind it is a good way to shoot your eye out.
