It should be possible, if you're careful (entirely unsupported, though, so if it breaks you get to keep both pieces). After a model class has been parsed at import time, all the information about the Field classes resides in the _meta attribute, which is an Options class from django/db/models/options.py. The fields themselves are all subclasses of Field, which is in django/db/models/fields/__init__.py. Both of those files are fairly well documented in the comments, so it should be fairly straightforward to read through the Field class (as a starting point) to work out what you need to change.
