Not in a supported manner. If the new orgname is shorter than (or the same length as) the old orgname you can binpatch the EDB, checkpoint, and log files - if you are comfortable with such things (don't forget to update the CRC and ECC). But that's tricky business and completely unsupported.
The closest you could come to supportabiity would be to completely remove Exchange from a forest, remove the Exchange tree from active directory, remove all the Exchange groups from AD, and then reinstall with a matching orgname. However, that's going to cause some serious ACL pollution for the rest of the life of that AD. Regards, Michael B.
