As long as it hasn't leaked it's oil into the lower leg you can do it all from the top.

Should be 120ml according to Sram's oil level chart.

Why not take the lowers off? It only takes a 5mm allen key and you can then clean the inside of the lowers and dust seals / stick plenty of Red Rum on them.
