First you should listen to see if you can hear it whirring when your key is position II. Sometimes it helps to get under the motor to give a listen. If you can hear noise you may have another problem like a clogged filter. How much fuel is in the fuel tank?
To answer your question, you don't have to remove the tank. The pump is accessed through a removable panel underneath the boot carpet.

Give the relays in the engine bay fuse box a wiggle and the see if you can hear the fuel pump work. You can also press the rubber covered inertia switch which is attached to the bulkhead in the engine bay to make sure it hasn't tripped.
