My current z170 motherboard died and I can't afford to wait 2 weeks to a month for the RMA to process as I need my pc for school. I'm thinking of just replacing it now and wondering if I can swap the old z170 motherboard to a z270 without reinstalling windows 7. All other components will be still be the same and I'm running skylake.

It may work. It may not. Back up all your data and then try it. If it works, then you're good to go. If not, then you'll need to perform a reinstall.
