Default change their life/lives

As the town of Santee buried the two dead children last weekend, parents, teachers and counselors were struggling to understand what had turned the baby-faced Williams into a stoned, smirking gunman who had changed their life forever.

The sentence above comes from CAE. Could we say '...who had changed their lives forever' without changing the meaning?

Could I ask native English teachers to help me please? Thank you very much.
