Yes and no. When titling a work like this, it tends to indicate an origin story for world changing characters. These characters haven't really done that with the exception of maybe the sisters, but their alterations thusfar amount to stopping Cinder(but not really) and Standing as a guardian for the relic that is yet to be secured. Blake's contribution is thusfar overshadowed by her parents/friends helping her out, and Weiss hasn't done much at all extraordinary for her family members.

While it *might* have worked before, subbing in other characters is out because should any team member die they aren't at beacon to require a solid 4 members, which would be the reason for the substitute. It'd be like Naruto replacing Sasuke & Sakura during his journey with Jiraiya for no reason. While in the series when Sasuke was replaced by Sai, that was only because in Konoha they used a 4 man team lead by a senior system.
