I'm about 98% positive that the studs are threaded in...likes this:
1986 Jaguar Vanden Plas Wheel Lug Stud Rear (Original Equipment)
....and then the ends are staked over (or swaged, or whatever the word is). I think Jaguar did it that way for decades!
I wouldn't do any hammering, pounding, or pressing until I took a good look
Cheers

I had this very problem on my car. Front lugs are pressed in, lug bolts on the rear are threaded from the inside and staked at the factory. Grind off the head in the back of the hub and merely unscrew it.
New lugs are available and can be merely threaded in the hole (clean it first) from the outside, after an application of Lock-Tite or similar.
I double nutted the new stud into place after a couple drops of Permatex Green Stud mount.
See pictures below.

EDIT: I have a picture of repair studs but I can't add it with the edit feature. I'll have to add it in another post.

I assume you mean one of these. And if this is the stud you mean, yes - these pound out. You will need to get the gear set moving to position it for removal. But getting one BACK into position - properly - will be a challenge. You should consider dropping the cage to get good access. It really is not that bad. Just my opinion.

Another shot.

Man that looks good!!! Yeah I finally just started taring into it yesterday and figured it out. Those bolts that go into the housing come out then the caps slide out and pull all the bearings apart. I'm glad I did it because the bearings were shot so waiting on bearings and seals and new boots then back together and paint.
