that age houe, I agree there are a whole lot of issues beyond

the question asked.

No outlets are being added. You couldn't add them if you wanted to--all of the electrical is buried in concrete (the house is solid reinforced concrete) . The new kitchen is merely taking the place of the old kitchen. Same footprint.

Since the kitchen is going to be all new, I just don't see the point of
even trying to re-use 65 year old wire, I'd pull all new through the
conduit. It should be an easy job.
