I need to pull the center cylinder on my mm700. The base gasket was replaced recently and has only 4 or 5 rides on it. Is it possible to pull the center cylinder and replace it without pulling all three and replacing the base gasket?

yes, if its a stock Yamaha metal base gasket it will be no problem, just pull the head and remove the cylinder.
Excellent and thanks for the reply. Should I coat the base gasket with a sealer of any sort??

It's generally recommended to use gasket tack when reusing gaskets.
