If they are 2ft dishes the cost for adapters and what not will outweigh
the cost to just install new antennas.
If they are 4ft or bigger then makes sense. 3ft is a wash.
Many vendors do make adapter plates... I think Cambium has one for
instance. It used to be the antenna manufacturers wouldn't sell you
plates because then they couldn't certify the antenna (i.e. make more
money).
You do need to know if the flange on the antenna is rectangular or
round. If rectangular I'd once again recommend just installing a new dish.

One of my customer has a private link with an old set of Exalt
Extendair rc11000 radios in the air on Radiowaves dishes. We're
looking to get them re-licensed into new radios with higher bandwidth,
but if we don't have to touch the dishes that would be great.
Is that a REMEC antenna connection? The Exalt Datasheet says antenna
interface is 'WR-75' But looking at pictures online, it sure looks
like a REMEC Bracket. I figured someone here has/had these radios and
just knows.
