no they are sealed beams.
easiest thing to do is
grab a bottle of something like windex or simple green (or you could simply use soap and water)
pour it into the housing (after you have the bulb out)
take a small piece of rag about 4 - 6 " square and stuff it inside the hole
use a wooden dowel or something that won't scratch the lens' and move the rag around cleaning the inside of the lens. Use needle nose pliers and a wire hanger to get the rag back out. Pour the rest of the liquid out and make sure to let the housings dry thoroughly before lighting them back up otherwise you'll bake the liquid onto the lens. You can use a hair dryer to speed up the process.
hope that helps
