Re-Welding Rear Dropouts?

I was reading Sheldon Brown's mighty fine website and at the bottom of the page they were selling rear dropouts, just the little last part (yes I'm a nub). My question is, can you take verticial dropouts off and replace them with horizontal ones?

Weirdly, I have not read anything on the web that even mentions this. Either it's not possible or it costs so much that the price isn't worth it.

Thanks in advance for a reply! You guys rule, not surly or sarcastic like the Fixed/Single forum .
