100%, that's actually what most of the people here on this forum do. Myself, I have only a few cabinets but a few hundred game PCB that I can swap in to play.
A lot of us use "candy cabs" which are generic Japanese arcade cabinets usually made out of metal and plastic suited for easily swapping out the games. You can see what these look like here: https://www.hard--candy.com/wiki/candy-cabinets
The only bit of wiring that might need to be adapted when swapping games is the "kick harness" this is the small connector separate from the main JAMMA harness that us used for buttons 4 5 and 6 for both players. (called a kick harness because it's usually used for the kick buttons on fighting games).
JAMMA games that only use 3 buttons or less can be plugged in and the kick harness left disconnected. There is no official standard for the kick harness so it can vary from game to game bud I'd say 90% of games that use 5 or 6 buttons will either use a "CPS1" style kick connector (which is what I believe Fighters History uses), or a "CPS2" style kick connector.
