You can, and you should (for educational purposes if not for fun :>), unless you wish to change raidz1 to raidz2. Replace, wait for resilver, if redoing used disk then offline it, wipe magic with dd (16KB at the beginning and end of disk/partition will do), carry on with GPT, rinse and repeat with next disk. When last vdev's replace finishes, your pool will grow automagically.
