hm
point A : i would never ever build a wheel with used spokes especially heavily used if I cared about the wheel and the performance of it
point B : if you get the same hub with the same dimensions as the old one technically yes....or get a different hub and build with diferent pattern.......if spokes too long use 4 cross instead of three cross.....of too short use 2x insted of 3x
and if you go ahead make sure you soake the spokes and nipples in some kind solvent to clean the threads raelly really well and then grease them well....
point C : if it is an upper end of market wheel it may be factory built with straight pull or flat spokes or shit like that ...or very little spokes number or special hub and rim.......so a nono.....anyway hope it helps
