Question about replacing a 2U Patch Panel with a 1U Patch Panel

I've been tasked with replacing a 2U Patch panel with a 1U Patch panel and can't find information on if I will have to do punchdowns on the backside or not.

Is it as easy as unplugging cables, unscrewing the front of a patch panel, screwing in a new patch panel front, and then plugging cables back in?

I feel like it's not, and that I will need to unwire every cable on the backside, then re-punch them down.

Any insight on this would be very much appreciated!
