While that's certainly a valid house rule*, morph only has provisions for swapping out your base racial template and further increasing your personal appearances.

*You'd have to be careful to keep this from eclipsing Modular Abilities for a fraction of the cost.

You can certainly make a morph build, but what you describe actually sounds closer to possession to me.
I looked at that, since effectively they are becoming that person rather than just duplicating them for a time. If you don't mind fixing the resistance/recovery issues, then it should work.

Requiring a new body every few weeks sounds like a dependency to me. I'd say that fresh corpses are common but illegal for a base of -15, and a weekly dependency should be the right rate.
It's probably both a limit on the duration and a severe dependency. I can't imagine locals will be that happen if you need fresh kills.
