Of course. We do not change punctuation, with a few exceptions for some short-lived archaic constructs like comma-emdash. We do change from single-quoted British style to double-quoted American style, but I think most everyone would agree that that is merely a presentational change that does not change the actual grammar of a sentence. (And that in and of itself was a very common thing for editors to do going back hundreds of years too!)
