Edit them, i don't think so, but you could re-draw the location names with your own input.

local newAreas = { 
{"Area_Name1", 500, 500, 500, 100, 50}, 
{"Area_Name2", 900, 900, 900, 900, 100, 50} 
-- Area Name, posX, posY, posZ, posWidth, posHeight 
} 
function disableGTAZones() 
setPlayerHudComponentVisible(source, "area_name", false) 
outputChatBox("This server uses custom GTA SA Zones.", source) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerJoin", root, disableGTAZones) 
  
function createNewZones() 
for i, v in ipairs(newAreas) do 
local colZone = createColRectangle(newAreas[v][2], newAreas[v][3], newAreas[v][4], newAreas[v][5], newAreas[v][6]) 
setElementData(colZone, "zone_name", newAreas[v][1]) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, createNewZones) 
  
function printNewZoneName(theZone) 
if getElementType(source) == "player" then 
outputChatBox(getElementData(theZone, "zone_name").." zone entered!", source, 255, 0, 0) 
end 
end 
addEventHandler("onColShapeHit", resourceRoot, printNewZoneName) 
  

I can alternatively sell you a resource which does just this, based on XML, allowing you to create zones by taking 4 points on the map (easier to create). You can also set zone names and add other properties such as entry restriction etc. Anyway, the script I wrote above should do the job.
