Hubs and rims have specific hole counts. So not possible to have yours rebuilt with the existing parts AND get a higher spoke count. You'd have to buy both with 24 holes and have them built. Possibly worth it, but probably not.
Advantage of factory wheels is debatable, and I imagine arguments cite both fact and opinion. You definitely get more bling, and bling is good. It just won't win a practicality argument.
