Probably. They'd have to mill out the block, register the caps, drill and tap the new holes, and align hone it.

They bolt a plate to the deck to guide the cutter, instead of just letting it center itself in the existing bore.
I don't know if it's worth the extra cost for 4 bolt caps unless you're really going to beat on it.
