I'm pretty sure it's possible.....just bring your guitar in to a shop and they'll do it for you.

i'd say you'd have to get a whole new fret board. i'm too good when it comes to hardware, but after looking at all the boards on my guitars those fret bar thingys seem to be pretty firmly lodged in and you'd probably fuck up the bored by taking one out and putting another in.
