Here's a link with double and single breasted jackets. As you can see, the entire front of the jacket is different. Pockets wouldn't fit in the same place, especially if you're cutting it down from a coat. Depending on whether she wants a short or long jacket, pockets might not even be possible, moved or not. The lapel won't look like it does now, and she wants to keep that.
Can cut in pockets be “moved”? Wouldn’t you have a big seam where the pockets previously existed?

Probably.  But one could make seam part th design.  Straight across, slanting up or down.  It would add some structural interest.
