Yes. That should be doable. If you are on Oracle, you could manually change the Column Name using the following Syntax (If you are on a different Database than Oracle then the Syntax might differ but still doable).
ALTER TABLE <Table_Name> RENAME COLUMN <Old Name> TO <New Name> And later you could change the models.py manually to reflect the New Column Name.
