Service 7, Shildon to Spennymoor which is currently operated by Weardale will be renumbered as service 99 when Scarlet Band take over the service next week which is another Durham County Council contracted service, so it must be possible to change the service numbers in some cases. Thing is, it would probably cause more confusion to change a service number whenever Go North East win a contracted service which has the same number as another service they already operate in another area, like the examples given.
