Only if the pin-numbers stay the same. It would be cool to have a possibility to change the connections netname in some way.
Anyway, i was able to finish my board by using the "remove all parts"-dialog, open the Design-rule dialog, and afterwards using the undo-function to bring back all parts. After saving the project under a new filename, ther error wouldnt occur again until adding new parts. The last unstable Version did not fix the problem, but Alain was able to open it without problems with his own bugfixed version. As soon as the next stable version is available i will try it and keep you up to date.
