Yes. Try the Panasonic TS-series snap-in caps. Digi-Key wil stock them.

There is a (very) small amount of noise in the machine. When I
was having it serviced the engineer recommended replacing these
capacitors in order to solve this.

What does the noise sound like? If it is a hum, it could indeed be
those caps, but it's more likely to be other supply decoupling caps
elsewhere. If it were my machine, I'd probably want to replace all
the electrolytics in the whole thing because it's of about the age where
they are going to start failing.
