easier going from I/O to Outboard, then the other way around.

Yes it can be done. It does get costly.
It may also change the handling characteristics of the boat.
Once the old drive system is removed there is glass work to be done.
You'll need an Outboard Bracket such as an Armstrong to mount the outboard.
And add rigging, controls, wiring, gauges, fuel lines etc all to the job.
And the cost of the outboard.

Keep an eye on Craigslist. I see inexpensive boats all the time in there.
