Yeah you can buy similar springs, you can buy any spring for that matter. Not at Home Depot, you need an "industrial strength" spring
If you look at places like McMaster-Carr or MSC Direct you'll find there are tons of pre-made springs. Those are called torsion springs (as I recall) and basically you'll need to get the thickness of the wire and the diameter of the coil as your starting point. You should be able to find a really close equivalent spring.
If you call a spring manufacturer, you can get any spring you wish to be ordered but they probably need minimal runs to be cost effective. There was someone a while back who got some custom MG-42 conversion springs ordered, but I do not know where it was done.
If you look at K-Var or maybe AA-OK you can find the factory replacement springs.
