I pulled an access panel and looked in the area where the furnace is located and immediately decided that this project, should I elect to go this route, will be turned over to the pros. My furnace ducting is right up against the back of the fireplace and it looks like the hoses will have to be rerouted to attach to the top of the air plenum rather than the current configuration coming out the back of the plenum. That however, depends on whether or not a new plenum must be installed.

I did, however, find a duct hose that is torn and that would explain the low airflow to the bedroom this past spring. As this to my list of things to do because I don't want anyone's "technicians" messing around in that maze of wires, water lines, AV cabling and heater ducts. Who knows what they'd break in the process of repairing the hose.
