Just about any bike can have the steerer tube replaced, I can't think of a reason why they couldn't, given the attending craftsperson has the skills and patience. BUT, I should mention that frame repairs like this are messy, overly time consuming, and a general pain-in-the-aspirin. A frame builder deserves a medal for doing this grub work, especially when he/she could be making a bike frame scratch that was new steel, new parts and not nearly as much trouble....
