I was shocked to see that the Carver Crystal inline water filter on my 1990 Maurauder hadn't been changed since 2000!!!

Can I by an inline filter that allows replacement of the filter only without having to buy a complete unit every 30 days or is it only the housing type filters that have to be built into the van that can have the filter replaced individually?

The replacement filters for the housing type filters are much cheaper, hence the question.

I was under the impression that when the old type Carver Crystal inline filter was past its sell by date you had to throw it away; it looks kind of sealed to me.......

Every real expert says the filters are a trap for bacteria and advise throwing the things away concentrating on giving the pipes a proper clean with Milton or similar. It's better for you and cheaper.
