Don’t know which exact Nitro 5 laptop model you have like is it an AN515-xx or similar, but the answer is a yes, as the USB 3.2 ports can be changed and the USB-C ports also, but its a specialist job (do NOT attempt to do this yourself as you can damage the board permanently) as you need a microscope and proper micro soldering tools to change these USB 3.2/USB-C ports, and if the USB ports pin traces are broken at the board, then its even harder to do as there is a need to add copper wires to retain the connection of the pins that their traces have broken, which is a very precise and delicate job. Take your laptop to an experienced technician that has these tools and USB appropriate parts and can do this job easily. Good luck and hope this helps you out.

This mainboard and its USB ports are from the Nitro AN515-56 model
