Hi mbhunt,
You can create a new .pbix file to get data from Azure Analysis Services database, check if retrieved tables and contained fields are the exactly same as when you retrieve from the SQL Server database. If it is the same, then you can copy the Power Query in this new .pbix to replace Power Query in original report. If not, then it's not possible to change data source and keep the report display.
Besides, we are not able to copy the reports from on .pbix file to another currently.
