Yeah.  It's really on the input level in case you have multiple inputs 
on the same card and one has poor reception or whatever, but it's 
generally easier to explain the choice of capture chards as a "card 
priority".

Changing the cardid is a bit more complex.  There have been a couple of 
posts about resetting cardid (i.e. 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/63269?nohighlight=1#63269), 
but it shouldn't matter at all what numbers are used.  If you just want 
to change it because of priority, it's far easier to set the input 
preference.
