If you've got 4-channel ABS/TCS, you can pop out the sensors on each backing plate (held in with a single 10mm each I believe), and you should be able to get the studs out of the backing plate through that.

then you got 4 channel.

you talking puting in a stock stud, cause one is damaged? or wanting longer /aftermarket ones? if stock, you can just use a stack of washers, around 5 washers, and pop out the stud just like the front and use the lug nut/washers to draw the stud back in.

but, aftermarket studs (from my experience atleast) dont just pop back in place like a stock replacement stud. they should be pressed in with a hyd. press. which means you gotta take the axle out of the car to have them replaced.
