Sleeper walls - honeycomb?

I’ve ventured into the crawl space to investigate ongoing musty smell. There was damp ground at front of house despite 5 airbricks along the front. This is the source of the smell.

I’d like to increase cross ventilation because at the back there are only two air bricks and other building work has reduced cross flow.

We had a major renovation a few years ago and several sleeper walls were added. There is no little ventilation between front and back.

Am I safe to knock bricks out of the walls in the subfloor to honeycomb them in order to increase ventilation?
