In a part file, Can we explode bodies (For exploded view)?
For a reason, I don't want to keep this a part and not as an assembly.

Not as easy as in an assembly, but:

You can move/rotate individual bodies in the part file. (As long as they are spearate bodies)

Insert->Feature->Move/Copy (Translate/Rotate)

The you can have one configuration with all of these features suppressed (regular model)
And another configuration with all of these features unsupressed (this is your 'exploded' configuration)
 
I'll suggest the method stated above by MDGroup along with use of configurations.
