In an effort to pass time, I'm thinking about making a solar-powered flashlight out of this random solar-powered night light we have laying in our garage.

I could just switch out the battery for a larger one and a stronger LED.

But, I'm wondering if I can just switch out the NiCad in the circuit for an NiMH? Do these charge differently? Or would it be OK?

No, you can not use a NiCad charger for NiMH.
Have a look at the following pages for the differences:
