Hi is it possible that the assembly code .S file in linux kernel be replaced by a .C file. 

This seems like a very general question. Which file do you want to replace and why?
You should understand that any *.S file contains arch specific code, which is written in assembly for optimization/efficiency reasons. Replacing it with an equivalent C code may undermine those goals.
