That's a 6x4 speaker and you can buy aftermarket speakers in that size. BUT, I can't remember specifically how they are set up in your era Sentra.
Is it a 6x4 speaker mounted on a plastic pod OR is it a 6x4 speaker fixed in a large (6" round) metal plate (entire thing is removable) .
If the former, you need aftermarket 6x4 speakers - they will drop straight in place.
If the latter, you need 6" speakers (also called 6.5", same thing). They won't drop straight in place, you'll need a drill and some screws to fit the speaker to the door.
Make sure you get the phasing correct when you wire them or they will sound terrible.
