You can, but it involves some hackery and is of course completely unsupported. Step one: Shut down Bacula. Step two: edit the volume's name in the SQL database (everywhere you find it). Step three: Start btape and use the 'writelabel' command to write the new label to the tape. Step four: Start Bacula again. At this point, you should have your tape with the label you wrote to it and the database showing the new name. I cannot guarantee though that this won't wipe your data or screw up your catalog in some way.
