Yes, fuel pump is just press fit into top of canister. Prepump mounted on side bottom. Each pump has intake screen which should be checked. Many times the pump(s) fail due to tear in the inlet screen which lets garbage to pass through the pump(s). Main pump is inserted into both the rubber bellows at the top of the pump and the black canister at the bottom. The pump's fitup measurements into each is important on reassembly. Insert main pump into top rubber bellows to a point where 46mm +/- 2mm exists between the top of the pump and the bottom edge of the bellows. Then insert bellows/pump into top of the canister until there is only a 4mm +/- 2mm gap between the bottom of the rubber bellows and the top of the canister. These measurements will give you the correct suction depth in the gas tank when the rubber bellows/pump assembly is reattached into the gas tank.
