Can this be replaced without ripping out the shower floor?

I have a rental property with a tile stand up shower stall. There is a small leak. I went to fix it today and found this (see picture). I am not sure if this is called a drum trap or something else. This shower has a lead pan. Is there a way to cut this trap, or replace the strainer and use fernco's and a new solvent weld trap to reconnect?

Any other possible solutions other than ripping it out and installing a 4 piece acrylic in its place? I don't want to wetbed and tile again.

The first two pictures are from below showing the drain and trap. The other picture is the strainer in the shower floor.
