Currently have a single port that is hurting. I have been offered a  dual
port long block. Can I replace the top side cylinder tins and  use
everything else, or is this going to require a full set of tins for  the
conversion?

I see top side tins on the samba, but there are  quite a few differences
between the early and late.
 
Yes, you can use the lower and front single port tin with the dual  port 
tin, but you need to find the early dual port tin. See what Brian ran into  
with his Notch motor.
Dual port tin from 67 to 71 is very similar (68 on got a hole for the CHT  
sensor), but 72 & 73 got extra holes for crankcase ventilation added, and  
might be different. Ideally the only real changes are the screw holes that 
mount  the lower tin end pieces (the straight ones) to the top covers.
