I did this recently on my '93 940 NA. Assuming the layout of the valve is the same, it won't be too hard. The heater control can be in any position for this. I replaced the hoses as well as the valve and left some knuckle skin under there. If I do it again, I'll loosen the intake manifold and pull it back to let me see what I'm doing.

If you're only doing the valve it will still have to be done by touch but it shouldn't be as difficult. It was the proper location and orientation of the hoses that gave me trouble. Also be sure the vacuum line is on securely. I didn't get mine on right and the valve wouldn't work.
