You can disconnect each fixture individually at it's deck box
I have no idea where or what a "deck box" is ...
I haven't seen a deck box in 30 years. They used to put the junction
box right in the deck and pot it solid with some goo. These days you
will have a PVC J box somewhere away from the pool and elevated a foot
or so higher than the water level. It usually has 3 pipes coming up in
the bottom. That is where the power, the cable from the light and the
8 gauge bond wire from the pool shell all get connected.

And, if it is an older pool and you have flush deck boxes, you'll probably
see brass cover plates in the pool deck, in line with each fixture. The
newer above ground deck boxes will usually be farther away from the
fixtures, but generally in line with them.
