Sorry but what coupling type you asking about? I would have thought the LGB and Marklin hook and loop are the same, I have a couple of Marklin locs with hook and loop and can see no reason to swop. But you must have a reason?
 
Perhaps a Spur 1 model?

A picture, could be worth a thousand words..

Yes thinking a bit more he could be talking Gauge 1 rather than G scale. If so that then makes it a rather more involved answer me thinks.
 
Hi, I do apologise it most likely is gauge 1 ?, its the Marklin 54990 set of crane and runner they have done, the coupling looks similar to the N gauge rapido couplings.

Yes that is a gauge 1 so change may not be a simple process, Indo not have any Marklin Gauge 1 items so am unable to help.
 
The problem is most of us have never seen a Marklin spur 1 model in the flesh..

So without pictures, it is a little difficult.

Whether any of our European members can comment, I am not sure.?

You may have more luck on a European Forum?

Nothing is impossible without some metal and a bit of ingenuity, but as Phillip says without a picture or two of the mounting I cannot even make a stab at a suggestion.
