Can someone restring a violin to be a viola?
Well, no because it'll only end up being a violin... and the only difference between a viola and a violin is it's strings and the size of it for the note pitch.... Well the thing is that for people that aren't commfortable with the violin finger board, they usually have a viola, but there is violin strings. Which means that you are playing the violin all thought the body and shape is the viola. So you can use violin strings on a viola.

Can someone restrain the violin to be a viola?
The violin will not by itself try to become a viola, so it doesn't have to be restrained. Should you want to restring it, you would have to use viola strings en set them at the right pitch. But since a viola is larger than a violin, you'll never get the exactly right viola sound in the ears of connaisseurs. Lesser people will hardly hear the difference.
