Yes, of course :)
To change it to a secondary select method, is it simply a matter of
quitting Gnus, changing both gnus-select-method and
gnus-secondary-select-methods, and then restarting Gnus? Will doing
this mess up any of the administrative files that Gnus has already
written (~/.newsrc.eld, etc.)?

You might start with gnus-no-server if you just want mail, or set
nntp-connection-timeout from nil to a value in seconds.
