Currently,changing no.switching Thethem currenteach system only supports one foal per color tag (white, gray, black, brown etc) - supporting additional foals would require a more realistic genetics system.

Can you alter the color tag data of default (SWEM) coats?
No, these are hard coded. You can continue to override the textures if you want to alter their appearance, but unless you do so with similar coats or colors the tags will not be logical when breeding. 

Can I see the details ofusing a coat (artist, name, tags etc) I get in game?command:
To be confirmed if this is officially supported (non-OP command or GUI display) but coat data can be shown using the command: /data get entity @e[type=swem:swem_horse,sort=nearest,limit=1] Behaviors[6].Coat
