Different pickups don't affect the scale. I don't know what you mean by or anything like that, but a full setup will be needed. And it may turn out you need to upgrade the whole electronics with the new pickups.

Routing a guitar (single coil or P90) for humbuckers is a major, non-reversible mod which requires appropriate tools and skills, if done properly. The job is even one step more difficult when the instrument has no pickguard to cover mistakes, or the difference between the old P90 routing and the new humbucker routing. A P90 is longer but narrower than a 'bucker, so one would need fitting rings for the new pickups.

I have no idea of your woodworking experience, so you need to judge that aspect yourself. Using a pro is always a good option...

Or you could just upgrade the pickups - not all P90's are the same, and there are also some P90-sized humbuckers. Many pickup makers (Lollar, Kinman, BareKnuckle to name the most obvious) have a good customer service, they'll listen to what you want and try to fill your needs.
