Updation of mapping out deletion of index

Hello guyz ,
I have created an index with a custom analyzer having a filter for
autocompletion . Now i also want to add tokenizer for Synonyms to my index .
I always need to delete the index mapping and then again create new index
for new setting .
Is it possible to update mapping without deleting the index and apply it to
the already stored records also .
