No, you've created many more problems. Your PCB now has to be larger, you need sockets for the ICs, increasing volume, weight, and cost. You also lose the conformal coating which offers moisture protection and you've introduced a new failure mode where chips vibrate out of the socket. Costs further increase as the manufacturer now needs to stock thousands of chips, most of which will never sell. You also introduce more manual steps in the assembly process. Boards can't be machine assembled to the same degree, which drives up costs even more.
You could go with a socket-less design, but then you need expensive equipment and a highly skilled technician to do the replacement. You still lose the conformal coating, as such coated boards are not very repairable in the general case.
For as much as you'd pay for a replacement chip and labor, a new PCB costs ten times less.
Component level repair is never an economical option in this scenario. It only works out if replacement parts are unavailable.
