Default Will a 3 jaw puller remove a hub with the axle still in the knuckle?

It's a simple question. 93 civic. I just dont want to bend the hub or mess up the axle by applying too much force on it that way. 3/4in impact owns so what do you think? Just picked up a bearing puller and a wheel bearing service set for 100 dollars. I don't have the hub tamer, and im not about to pay 300 for it to get the whole set.

I think a large three jaw puller may work. But if not does anyone know if the LT825 will work? The one that you tap out?

Back up plan is the press, but just wanted a simpler way withou spending 300 for the OTC kit.

a nice press is always useful... I have never been able to get a pressed in bearing/hub without one, and especially without damaging a new insert
