Yes, and yes. I did this with an iphone 8, I think, which basically gave it a few more years of functionality before the advances to cameras and processors became too great to ignore. I used a kit from iFixit which was pretty easy to use.
FYI: I think the way to gauge your battery is to look up the number of charging cycles it has had. If it's over 1,000, that battery is past its operational lifetime.
Good tip, thanks. I just looked up this stat using CoconutBattery and mine is at 676 cycles, so not too bad.
