Im not sure about that - im no expert at all, but taking a look at the cutaway on this page https://www.dtswiss.com/en/innovations/ratchetexp (the new 240 uses the same technology I think) indicates that you still need to remove the ringnut to get at that bearing. I might be missing something though.
It's only older DT hubs that need the ring nut tool, if you're buying new then they use the star ratchet rings which are really good and easy to service or upgrade to more engagement points. Hope look a bit nicer though.
