Question Removing a dent through the tire well?

This Tercel I have also has a very large dent, maybe two feet tall and two feet wide. Basically the whole panel next to the door and above the back tire well is pushed inward, like one very big dent. It looks like an easy job to push out, but there is no way to get under this place in the Tercel.

Now, I was thinking of ways to get under it, and the easiest would seem to be through the tire well. This would mean putting a semi-large hole in the top left part of the tire well, so I could fit my hand in and push the dent out. Does anyone know if this would be safe, or if putting a hole in the well could damage anything important?

Of if you have other ideas for accessing this panel, that would be great too.
