Yes, you should be able to change your flight reservations. The most important thing to do is to cancel your existing reservations before the first flight departs. If you fail to cancel the reservation before your flight departs, the airline considers that a No-Show and your ticket has no value remaining towards future travel.

If you definitely know you won't be traveling on the flights you have reserved, it's best to contact Delta and have them cancel the reservation. They will give you instructions on how to use the remaining ticket value towards another trip on Delta within 1 year from the date the ticket was issued. There will probably be a fee to change the ticket and possible difference in air fare, depending on what the fares are when you rebook, but at least you have the ability to change the ticket versus losing it completely.
