Can the skis actually cope with it? will the fitting still be strong enough?

There is no reason in general why you can't do this. The new bindings
will almost certainly have a different hole pattern to the old, although
you can always put epoxy into the screw holes if you reuse any.

One redrill/second binding OK, holes at least 1/4 to 1/2 inch from
older holes, plugs glued into holes.

Second redrill/third binding, questionable, depends on ski structure.

More than that, Swiss cheese. Hang 'em on the wall.

Happy trails,
