Yes, the engine will have to come out, the fuel rail on the back of the engine will prevent you from removing cylinders.
Besides, consider this your golden opportunity to carefully check your front engine mounts. They must be removed and checked in a vice. This is key to belt mileage, and crankshaft life!

You don't mention what happened to lead you to the conclusion that one of your cylinders needs repair. I would definitely recommend splitting the cases so you can install fresh crankshaft seals. So whats the story? what happened to your engine?
