Sure. However, you'd have to rerun the refrigerant lines, control wiring, and the electrical service to the new location. This could be costly.
My parents did it with existing ductwork.
As a 34-year HVAC veteran, I usually recommend replacement of the condensing unit only when the compressor has failed(seized or burnt out). A properly maintained central air conditioning system should easily last 20-30+ years, so don't replace it early!When a replacement is required, I will usually recommend a menu of options (at increasing cost): 1. Replace the failed compressor in the existing condensing unit2. Replace the existing condensing unit only (where the replacement condenser has the same SEER rating as the original3. Replace the condensing unit and the evaporator coil to upgrade the efficiency rating of the system4. Replace the entire system (when converting from R-22 to R-410A refrigerant)Many existing condensing units have an efficiency of 10 SEER or less. The minimum SEER rating of replacement condensing units is 13 SEER. If you only replace the outdoor unit, it will no longer match the lesser efficiency rating of the existing evaporator coil. Not only will this mismatch reduce overall efficiency, it will probably void the manufacturer's warranty.R-22 equipment is being phased out. I do not recommend using existing tubing with new R-410A equipment, since it will contain moisture-laden mineral oil which will deteriorate the new synthetic oil which is compatible with R-410A.The HVAC Veteran

Yes, a skilled professional would be able to install the proper duct work for central air conditioning in your existing home. Check in your area for a reputible business.
"Not as difficult as some might think. If it is a home that currently has installed ductwork, the process of the central air conditioning is rather simple. Purchasing the condensing unit is a major expense,"
Not possible
Central America is in North America, Sherlock.
No.
Yes.
It is not possible
trip central means figuring out how to travel in the cheapest way possible.
Air Conditioning compressors have heaters in them to keep the oil warm year round. A critter or two may have discovered this source of warmth and moved into your condensing unit for the winter.
