That, like the .45ACP Lugers, sounds doable and a fun project. The .38 Super is a fine cartridge.

But, if I understand the OP's original question correctly, he's asking if you could simply rechamber an existing Luger to fire .38 Super. I think it possible but I don't think it advisable. My opinion, of course.
