Can i switch a product to become a variant of another product, without losing data?

Question

"individual products". We have done several transactions on them as

"Product Variants" and group them together, without losing
the data or at least messing up the previous process?

Product 1: Speaker123-Color Red (Product_Template_1),
Barcode:10

Product 2: Speaker123-Color
B
