You are ONLY elligible if you're contracted for at least 6 months and are currently playing at Tony-voting time. Therefore, Jonathan Pryce is elligible, Eden Espinosa is elligible, Eileen Atkins is elligible. Harvey Fierstein is not because Fiddler closed. Megan Hilty is not because she's leaving in May. Alan Tudyk isn't, 'cause he hasn't been in Spamalot for at least 8 months.
By the way, it's Best Recreation of a Role, not Best Replacement. However, everyone (including the newspapers) calls it the latter.
