hm... I don't really know if I get your question
correct... are you asking about physical way of
removing chip from the board and placing another one?
You said both chips have the same pin configuration -
if so - there is no problem - just remove the old one
and solder the new one...

before doing it I'd made sure that there is enough
space in the memory space for a bigger one...

all that is just my general knowledge - I don't know
anything about AT29LV0x0A chips...

If additional address lines are required he can jumper from the daughterboard
connectors.
