Should be. Depends what extent the damage is i suppose. Things like bumper and headlight are easy to do and wouldnt take long.

chassis arm - depending on severity... on a jig, 2 days most...
bonnet - replace, 20 mins if already painted, 2 days if not
headlight, 5 mins job
earbox - depending on damage, case of replacing driveshaft seals, worst case, new box
bumper back on, couple of mins (if its not smashed up)
door back in place... it bent or something?

might be looking at a new door then, would be cheaper than trying to repair the old one!
A-pillar mounts may need repairing too
