Default When changing locking door hardware?

It is time to get new handles/knob for the front doors. After 8 years the cheapo satin bronze looks like junk.

When one gets the new handles with locks/keys is it possible to use the old tumblers/keys in the new hardware?
I know it can be done by a locksmith but is it a DIY type job?
