Can you stud a used tire that is siped?

In general, you can't stud ANY used tire. The manufacturers provide small holes for tire studs and once a tire is driven even a few miles, those holes fill up with grit and road debris. It will be almost impossible to find a tire store that's willing to stud a used tire, since the process will involve digging out whatever has built up inside those stud holes. I also wouldn't trust the studs to stay in the tire if someone DID dig out the debris.

How do replace studs on 1998 dodge avenger?

The wheel studs are replaced by first removing the tire from the brake. Remove the disk brake pads and caliper if it is the front and remove the brake drum if it is the back. Once you have the brake disk or drum off, simply pound the studs with a heavy hammer and they will pop out the back. if you plan on reusing the studs put the nut on the threads so it is flush with the end and then use hammer as not to ruin threads. Spray WD-40 or heat the brake disk/drum(not the studs) if they are stubborn or rusty.
