Well, the Amanda label is written on each tape, at the beginning -- so
you'd need to do some tape-drive trickery to rewrite that
(single-block) file without overwriting the following data. I'm not
sure tape drives can do that.
The remaining adjustments in Amanda's metadata would be tricky, but
not impossible (basically a global search-and-replace over all of
Amanda's metadata would do the trick).
