This is possible.
Do you have examples where the meaning is definitely different?
Regarding the Greek Bible:
Note that in Job 17:7 01c, A, pc read PHROW.
Note that in Mk 8:17 D* reads PHROW.
Note that in Rom 11:7 C, 69 read PHROW.
It appears to me that in the NT context the difference in meaning seems to be very small.

Do you have some edifying examples?
The initial reason for my question was:
Was the change in Jo 12:40 intended to change the meaning, or was it more or less
accidentally, retaining basically the same meaning, possibly because PHROW was more
common?
