Probably the biggest danger is physically damaging the cards when removing/inserting.  I have read elsewhere that they can be difficult to remove due to locking tabs - not tried it myself. There is unlikely to be any danger of the boards being electrically incompatible as they will all have the same contact system.

However, if you have a functional AN200 containing a PLG150-AN, and a Motif Rack containing a PLG100-DX and VL, it's not clear what is the benefit of swapping boards around to get a non-functional (non-editable, non-saleable) AN200 with DX card, and Motif with AN and VL. What are you trying to achieve?
