Can I rewrite existing changelog entries for already uploaded versions with the next upload, i.e. by adding the relevant "closes" line to the previsions version?

close them properly with manual action. SO it may be easier to just not edit them.

You need to use the option -v of dpkg-genchanges so that the relevant
bugs are listed in the .changes file, so that they get automatically closed.
To close any remaining bugs that were fixed by your upload, email the .changes file to XXX-done@bugs.debian.org, where XXX is the bug number, and put Version: YYY and an empty line as the first two lines of the body of the email, where YYY is the first version where the bug has been fixed.
