Is changing the calibre of a rifle as easy as changing the barrel

Very sorry if this is a dumb question
I have a barnard action LRP 223 R which I'm looking forward to my son using from ext year
If he enjoys it like I hope can this rifle be easily modified to a 6BR perhaps if he wants FO?
Thx in advance

As you’ve said you will need to change the barrel, but you will also have to change the bolt to one suited to 308 sized cases.
