FWD makes it harder to leave a tranny in and just pull the motor out on its own, but it is possible. It is almost always easier when the driveshafts are out of the way as far as possible, either by undoing the bolt to the strut mount or the ones to LCAs. If the car is automatic you have to unbolt the torque converter first from the flexplate, if its manual you need to remember the input shaft from the tranny needs to be cleared first (pulling towards the passenger side) then lifted out. All in all, it will be easier to pull everything and just separate what you want after, thats how we do it at my shop.
