If the coil has active components inside, it won't work because the coil and box have to be tuned to each other. If they say it can't be done, it probably can't. You're suspicious, probably, because they told you to buy another coil. Remember though, that they can't know you will buy a new one from them or a second hand one. They're probably giving you good advice.
Your only solution is to try it. I doubt that it will do any harm but it may diminish your detector's capability to some degree. Perhaps even in ways you can't see from the first.
All of this begs the question. Why do you need a longer cable?

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
