Yeah, it's not a hard job to do. Just make sure that you add equal amounts of fork oil to the forks.
I've heard about a quick fix, that might buy you some time. By using the thinnest valve clearance measurement tabs, you can possibly get between the seals and stanchion to (re)move the crap that is causing the leakage. Never tried it myself, but sound's plausible. But since you've got the time, better to just change the seals altogether. It'll be a matter of time anyway, before you have to.
