Yes, at the moment it is not possible to switch from Random to Murmur.
We were interested to move to Murmur. And we looked if it was possible when
migrating the keyspaces to another datacenter. However this is not possible
even while the new datacenter didn’t have the same number of nodes.

RandomPartitioner will probably be there for a long time for backwards
compat, and if it goes away (unlikely) there would certainly be a migration
path. That said, it's still advised to use Murmur unless you really need
Random.
