Is it possible to replace the tyre valve when the stem has broken near to where it passes through the rim?

Tyre valves have to be fitted from inside the rim, the end inside the rim is too big to go through hole in rim ( and the pressure helps keep th valve in place and sealed ) - don't know if this will work

They should replace the valve every time you get a tyre replaced, it the tyre has an innertube ( most but not all spoked rims have a tube inside ) then the new valve comes as part of the new innertube. Alloy rims should be tubeless and the valve is a separate replaceable part, but sometimes if the alloy rim goes porous and leaks air they will put a tube in.
