Rifles can be rechambered, if the rounds are the same caliber. You'd do this to change cartridges of the same caliber. Rifles can also be rebarreled. You'd do this to change calibers and cartridges. You can also replace the action in a rifle to change the action length. The cost of rebarreling(new caliber and cartridge) and replacing the action(new action length) would be prohibitive. It would be cheaper and easier to sell the 308 and buy a 338 magnum.
