you cannot change pool's template, because it means replacing all the disks for all the vms in the pool,
which is basically the same as removing the pool and creating a new one.

but, you can do something similar in 3.4, using template versions:
in 3.4, when you create the pool, you can select a template and LATEST as the version.
when you create a new template, you can make it a version of the original template,
and the pool will update to this template.

you can read about it here
