Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Disabling most coaster brakes is a very straightforward job that anyone with a bit of mechanical skill should be able to do. Here's a link to a youtube video showing how it's done.

Otherwise you can ask a shop to do the job, but I suspect that they won't unless you do it as part of installing 2 caliper brakes at the same time.
