Is it reasonably possible for one person to remove caster cups, roll a wheeled baby grand a few feet out of the way on a hardwood floor, and then roll back and replace caster cups?

Thank you. Yes, how do I lift it back up to replace cups without it just sliding away? How does one make sure the casters won’t damage the floor?
Oh, right, didnt think about it trying to roll when replacing the cups. Maybe try a make-shift wheel chock with some towels or wood wedge, really anything you could jam under the other wheels.
Are you sure the wheels will even damage the floor? Is this a stage, like normal black stage deck? If so, you’ll be fine. If not, and the hardwood is like a really nice finish or dents/scratches easily then there’s likely to be a risk. How was the piano brought in?
I didnt think to ask if the castors were plastic or metal? If they are plastic, you’ll be good. I was thinking about the wide metal castors ive seen a lot. If they are metal, unfortunately i dont have any perfect answers- you’ll have to get creative, i guess. Cardboard, scrap carpet pieces, basically anything to buffer under the castor. But nothing you’d want to reuse ‘cause the castors might damage your makeshift padding.
