It doesn't work because in the earlier films, Roger Moore gets revenge on a character for killing his wife in an earlier film (in which he wasn't played by Roger Moore).
However, I guess they could introduce it as the new way of doing things, as "Casino Royale" was a reboot of the franchise, making Daniel Craig the very first version of this "new Bond". They could make it explicitly that this Bond has retired - possibly even with a cameo scene featuring Craig - and now someone else is taking on the 007 title and alias "James Bond".
Would be the best way to have him change race and clear up any problems with future changes too... you could even throw in a female James Bond for a few films...
