Yes, it's possible. But check the fittings and threads first. Maybe they're loose or didn't have the proper sealant on them. Changing out the slave is actually pretty simple. Just a couple of bolts, hook up the fluid line, and adjust the slave-rod/fork/TOB clearance as per my link above. A leak of that size should be pretty easy to isolate. If it's not already obvious where the leak is, just clean everything up and wrap a little white gauze around the fittings, etc. and let it sit overnight (don't drive it around). That should tell you where it's leaking.
