I have never heard of an inner CV joint boot failing but I cannot see any reason they cannot be....
replaced. They are a fairly normal joint on splines with a circlip on the shaft.
Whether you can buy the boot is another matter, I would see if the main dealer can get them.

I have bought them no problem from Blau and ecs
for a 2000 4.2 auto, a 96 C4 auto and an 85 c3 stick (that one years ago back to blau)
Inners usually only fail at very high mileage (way over 100K), but once I get in there to do a messy CV joint I usually change it anyway.
