My Quest 3 USB port is only allowing charging, plugging it on my pc it gets unrecognized but seen, for now im using adb, but i prefer when i can connect it to my pc.

It certainly does seem to be possible, expecially since it doesn't look like any soldering would be required. If you search up Meta Quest 3 USB port replacement, you'll find a ribbon cable with a USB-C port on one end and an FPC plug on the other. Here's an example.
So yes, it is definitely possible to replace the port; they wouldn't be selling parts for it if it wasn't. Although I didn't find any repair videos showing you how to do that specific repair, there is a teardown video that will get you all the way to removing the charging port mounted on the hinge retainer. That puts you like 95% of the way there; if you can follow the video and get to that point I'm sure you can figure out that last step.

If either of you decide to tackle this repair, I would ask that you take lots of pictures as you work and once you're done, use those to create your very own iFixit guide to replacing the USB port. It's easy, fun, and you will earn the respect of the repair community, helping those who come after you with the same problem.
Good luck and let us know how it all turns out!
