Not really otherwise the roof rafters will sag in the middle. They're called collar binders, are you trying to make a room up there?
 
no just want to move them for to give more head height and wanted to know if its safe to move them up a ft or so
 
Can you tale a photo so I can see the rest of the roof timber?
