Can you see Eiffel Tower with 5 hour layover?

Yes you can. Assuming your flight arrives in the morning, from the Airport (either Terminal 1 or 2) take the RER B (blue) train line. Upon arriving at station St-Michel Notre Dame switch from RER B to RER C (yellow) . Get off at station Champ de Mars - Tour Eiffel.
