No, you can not change the copyright. However, you could add your copyright after the MyBB one if you would like.

You may NOT remove, modify or hinder the visibility of the MyBB copyright at any time.
It must contain the links to the MyBB website and be formatted appropriately.
Failure to comply with the above will result in prosecution to the full extent of the law.
This is free software, support us and we'll support you.
So can I remove the "powered by" ? Isn't it redundant to have two links right next to each other?
I see a bit injust and annoying move/modify/delete the copyright, at the moment, the staff of MyBB do a great _FREE_ software, do you think if you remove the copyright the MyBB will be interested making alot of lines of PHP without get any credit? =(
I have something like

As long as the two links are still there, that should be fine.
