Yes you can, but the support brackets that cradle the fin tube usually are also the point of attachment for the front cover. If the new cover is not compatible with the old bracket, you would have to fabricate a method to reattach the fronts. I think an all new baseboard assembly is the best way to go in most circumstances.
