[LE] Replacing references in vanilla cell without a cell edit?

[greyday01]

Is it possible using scripts to move vanilla references into another cell and place others in their place without editing the cell itself?

A script that references the items and moves them to a different location is easy enough, but is there a way to place new items in a certain cell, at specified x,y,z coordinates? I've been looking through the scripting guide at creationkit but can't see a way. I want to remove some vanilla references and replace them with different ones but I was hoping to find a way to do it such that if another mod edited that cell my changes would still be there. Any scripting experts out there?

Cell edits are actually the one and only thing I'm aware of that multiple mods can edit without overriding each other.
