Of course you can use your rupasov or tea hashed ReiserFS filesystems! But
is there a tool that can let you convert your old hash to a newer one? I
don't think so (correct me if I'm wrong). You have to back up your data.
Create a new filesystem with the new hash, then restore your data.

Who is telling how many more on-disk format changes ReiserFS will have to
go through?
