If, and only if, you have some experience with any kind of cable management prior to that. Now give your PC to your teenager niece and ask her to replace PSU. "Come on, sweetheart, it can't be that hard!" Pro tip: just because someone's using a PC daily doesn't make them an expert in it, just like taking drugs doesn't make you a pharmacist. You think a non-expert should replace a PSU on their own? Then remind yourself of that distinct smell of burning plastic and think again.
I think anyone with any brain cells could replace a power supply. They aren't difficult and yes I think a non-"expert" could do it. My teenage niece pulled up youtube and rebuilt her entire computer all on her own. Guess what it booted without any burning plastic smell.
