At least in theory I don't see a problem. So yes, we probably could.

The main argument for me are not the existing collisions but that I
think we have many zombie tickets which I am happy to retire.

I think most of the functionality can be achieved with tags.
On the other hand we win the possibilities of an integrated platform
where issues and pull requests can be linked and don't share the same
ticket numbering space.

What are the key requirements for you? Do you prefer GL or redmine?

FWIW, I don't like hub because of redmine usability issues and the
infrastructure it runs on and I would like to have a "usable" ticket
solution as soon as possible.
