Yea you can put the 25's on, but you don't get much margin for pinch flats. And you could use the 45's on it too.
Should you go the "two wheelsets" route, then use the wheels you've got for the 25's and try to get wheels with wider rims for the 45's. Wide tires on narrow rims tend to flex sideways too much, unless they're inflated very hard.
