Can I replace dead pickups with working pickups from another part of the rhodes?  ie. moving a few treble pickups to the middle or low notes?

Yes, but you are better off just buying some used pickups from ebay or another source or else you will still have some dead notes. Also-too much heat from the soldering iron can cause the working pickups to fail, so be careful.
