I cannot see the listing from the link you provided as it seems to be expired, however, the Go-Kit 32 for the WhisperFlo Pump can be found here: Pentair WhisperFlo Go-Kit 32

Can all the gaskets from the kit be replaced with the units plumbing in place or do I need to remove the unit from the system?

No, you do not need to remove any plumbing. The kits come with a lid o-ring, diffuser gasket/o-ring, seal plate gasket, shaft seal, and o-ring lubricant. All these are accessible when you remove the pool pump motor and mounting plate.
