Which part do you want to know whether possible?

I am particularly interested in understanding the following:
- Is it possible, as service providers, to change the card information used for a customer's subscription payment on Stripe, in the event that their primary card fails (due to expiration, credit limit, etc.)?
- If such a change is possible, are there specific APIs provided by Stripe that enable us to programmatically change the card information for a customer's subscription?

Yes, absolutely. You can update the default payment method that is used to bill the subscription. This obviously need to be a card that the user has previously saved on your service

You'd update this param: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update#update_subscription-default_payment_method
But that wouldn't automatically re-attempt the failing payment on the existing invoice
