  You can edit a post and change the datestamp in the Publish module and then click update. I know you are not scheduling a post but see the the images here

  Note that every time you edit a datestamp you break the original link so don’t get into that habit http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/08/05/avoid-creating-404-pages/
