Yep, you can! Try cleaning the analog stick with some isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab. If that doesn't work, you might need to replace the analog stick module. Good luck!

Hot take: Just buy a new controller. Fixing them is a hassle and can be more trouble than it's worth.

I've dealt with this myself. I sprayed some electrical contact cleaner into the stick mechanism, then moved it around. Problem solved!
