Yes, but you'd need to be very accurate when drilling and tapping. You'd also need to check that the hub flange is thick enough to
provide enough thread depth/strength for the bolts.
If it's the length of the studs that's a problem you can get longer ones to press into the existing holes.

I'd just go for longer studs. but i've never liked bolts anyway
