Yes, that was the first thing I thought of also. However
at least on the pumps I've seen, the hoses are attached
in a way that doesn't look like they were intended to be
able to be removed. (No standard fittings, like I've
seen on air tanks for instance). Perhaps I could just
cut the hose, but I don't know if those hoses are
standardized and if I can find the fittings I would need
to connect to it.

These don't have to be high pressure hoses (at least on the footpump),
just cut the hoses, use a piece of steel tubing (for example)
and some worm clamps.
