I would not recommend leaving old flashing and roof and trying to do
something over the top of that; that's just asking for trouble down the
road.

That was my next question: are the skylights attached only to the
roof, or are they attached to the ceiling joists inside?
If I can remove the skylights without disturbing the inside sheetrock,
that would be great.

Try posting in roofing.com under construction preferably with pictures.

Why? The OP is getting some good info here. Are you suggesting there are
not knowledgeable replies?
