that is something i have tryed and so yes its a definite yes, tryed and true. when the crank broke on my 6.5 chevy i changed out the block with a used one from the auto wreaker.priced out new rings and they were 900.00 at the time about 20 years ago. measured the old rings in the bore and next to nothing for wear. truck had over 200,000 k on it. honed the cyl's and installed my pistons with old rings and that engine is still running. has 400,000 k on it now. also in the mid 1970's in mechanic's classes we tore down a 225 slant 6 cylinder engine to bare block. measured all components and put the engine back together with old brgs and rings. run engine on test stand all was good. then the next class would do the exact same thing. i for get how many times the instructor said these engines were apert and back together. everything had to be set to factory spec so that when he turned the key it would start right up which it did.
