Yes, that’s possible. The extension .svg as well as .preview.svg, 
.cropped.svg and -[number].svg are hardcoded in the file 
scm/framework-svg.scm. You can change them directly in that file if you 
want to have this change for everything you do with LilyPond.

If you want the change only for one project, you’d have to redefine 
output-framework & Co. in your LilyPond input file. I tried that (inside 
\book and on toplevel) but without success, it seems like it’s “too 
late” for redefinition. But maybe there is a possibility to make it work 
that I don’t know of (might have something to do with Scheme modules or 
including init files after the redefinition?).
