Removing the entire side panel should be possible although that seems like a lot of extra work to effect the repair you describe. If I were to make the repair that you describe, I would remove enough of the inner fender to repair the damaged sub-rail with the proper gauge material and weld the cut piece back in place. If the inner is rusty you may want to replace it.
