Yes, you can often buy right arms without rings, but in most cases there won't be enough savings to do so. Compare price with and withour rings and decide for yourself if it doesn't make sense to buy the spare rings now for a bargain price in terms of the price difference.
BTW- it's rare that driving a pedal into the ground on turns damages cranks. What's wrong with your crank, or are you just worried?
