Actually, Diesel Discussion is where you want to put questions about diesels. This Tech Help section is for gasoline-powered 'Benzes. I realize that the forum titles are a bit confusing.

Anyway, the link for Diesel Discussion, again:

Diesel Discussion - PeachParts Mercedes ShopForum

As for your question, I would think that you could have a shop rebalance the driveshaft for you. However, you'd probably want to weigh the cost of balancing vs. refurbishing vs. replacing with a rebuilt/new driveshaft.
