Hi Zach!
You can definitely replace the yoke style coupler on your utility trailer with the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole - eZ-Latch - Silver - 2" Ball - Bolt On - 10K # DM14793-52. It looks like you would need to cut your current one off, but that's pretty common.
The EZ-Latch mechanism on this will be a lot easier to live with than the yoke style you have right now. I can't say I am a huge fan of the yolk style couplers, but they are still better than the flip style ones. Those things are terrible. At least in my opinion.
What do you typically haul in your trailer?
