Some do just switch this way.  I don't think it's a good idea, however.

What might save some money is to just buy a replacement CIS cartridge and
just drain the old ink out of the tubing.

I recently needed to put new (actually used but cleaned) tubes on a CIS.  I
pulled off the old tubes and pried off the black top on the cartridge that
holds the tubes in place.  I used a syringe to pull the ink up to the ends
of the new tubes, stuck the tubes on the cartridge fittings, and taped down
the black top/tube holder to the cartridge.  It was very easy.

The MIS FS bottles are marked with a letter indicating the ink position.
