Is it possible to change the washers on a kitchen faucet while the city water pressure is on?

The building I live in requires a 30 day notice to turn off the water pressure. I figure I could replace the kitchen faucet washers in a few minutes while the water is on full pressure. Is this possible?

How do I unclog plumbing supply line?

At a point about 250 ft. from my house, I had a broken water line repaired. The guy who repaired it used paper towels to stop the water drippage while doing the repair. I had a little water pressure for a moment. Now, I have none. We disconnected the lines under the house. There is no pressure there. I have kept faucets open for several hours now, but the paper towels have not dissolved. Any ideas? Thank you.
