I read about somebody refilling the stampin write markers on a blog a long time ago, maybe 2 years ago. I think it was Julie Buehler but not sure. She took out the tip gently with a tweezers, and dropped a couple of reinker drops in the marker, then reinserted the tip. Here's her blog if you want to search it or ask her: http://paperpleasing.typepad.com/
Yes, you can pull the nib gently out and just drip couple of drops into the barrel of your marker. It literally takes just few drops. Replace the nib and you're good to go. You can also soak the nib in a little pool of corresponding ink. Store the markers flat to assure the even distribution to both tips.
I know there is a video on dawns stamping thoughts that shows you ways to re ink your markers which just shows you what 2 Tibetans and happyinker have already said.
I have done this many times. I use tweezers to gently grasp the pen nib then pull straight out. Put the nib somewhere where you won't lose track of it :-) Then put 3 or 4 drops of the reinker in the pen tube. Use the tweezers to replace the nib, pushing gently until you feel it's fully in. Scribble on scrap paper to get the ink down into the nib. Repeat for the other side of the pen.
