Roman Catholic answer:Of course you can replace the cross on a rosary. The only thing that might be a factor is the blessing. When something is broken, it normally loses its blessing.

If you remove the crucifix from a blessed rosary, it would lose its blessing and have to be blessed again when you replace the crucifix.
