Almost anything is possible with enough practice and patience.

The pad with the yellow arrow seems to be the topic here. If you look closely there’s quite a bit (in micro soldering terms) of trace left just under the surface that you can scrape to expose and create/attach a new pad.

the question you have to ask yourself is if you’ve got the patience to create and attach the new pad.

You might want to consider bringing it in to a console repair shop that can fix the lifted pad.
