I have my blown open diff sitting out the back and was wondering if it was possible to weld or minispool it , it drove alright apart from the clunking when going slow

You are pulling it out to modify it, so pull it and have a look.
If the spiders are what let go, yeah you can do as suggested. If the pinion or ring gear are damaged, then no, probably not.
