That's what I did with the used tank I got for my pond fish to winter in. I just used a razor scraper to cut the silicone out of the corners, then applied a new bead. Just be careful not to cut into the joint itself. The joints on my tank were good, so I saw no need to cut them apart. I'd probably end up breaking the glass doing that anyway. If it looks like the silicone in the joint is failing, then that would be another matter.
