I think when you do a ssc.stop it will stop your entire application and by "update a transformation function" you mean modifying the driver program? In that case even if you checkpoint your application, it won't be able to recover from its previous state.
A simpler approach would be to add certain conditions inside your transformation function and switch them accordingly instead of modifying the transformation.
