Wondering: is there any way to change the lichcraft spell...

Would add flavor, methinks. As it is now it's just one of the many death summoning spells.

Edit: and if you could do it to other commander that was not the caster, it would add flexibility

I completely understand... upon reading the description it sounds like the casting mage will be the one changing, but it's not true. Even more painful was back during Dominions_2 where all these items had very detailed histories yet no clear specifics for the characteristics of the items. Just one example... the first time I equipped the Amon Hotep helm it was on a Telestic Animation statue which was under water.

In answering you're question... there's no modding way which will transfer existing stats of the target caster into a demilich. You might be able to transfer the existing stats by copying another spell to change the target caster into a mummy, but even this is not guaranteed and probably won't work.
