I'm wondering if its possible for the hunters to rebel against the Covenant.

The hunters are mentioned in a few sources as only joining the Covenant when threatened with the complete destruction from orbit of their planet and their race, as the Covenant could not defeat them in a ground war.

This would indicate that they do not subscribe to the religious beliefs of the collective and are only kept in place by the threat of force, making theman ideal target to 'turn' to join the humans. or at least ally with them. This could be done by taking back their homeworld and saying they could return after they did a few little jobs...........

That sounds a bit too farfetched, in my opinion

i dont think they will. i havent read the books but apparently theyre fairly well respected compared to other races. plus i think they love the battlefield too much so theyll stay for that anyway

Wouldnt happen...well not unless the Elites went with them. The Hunters can't stand the rest of the Covenant yes, but they respect the Elites greatly for there battlefield tactics and general fighting skills. They have no problem squashing a Grunt or a Jackel under boot, but the Elites have the respect from the Hunters, and as such they wouldnt turn against them unless the Elites turned against the Hunters and sent them on something insane like a major suicide mission, or something.
