Is it always OK to replace a regular electrolytic capacitor with a low
ESR version in things like the vertical and horizontal sections of a
CRT monitor or TV?

Are there any cases where low ESR electrolytics should never be
substituted?

I have found instances of a simple switchmode power supply that used standard
electros on the input. Replacing with low ESR type actually increased the
switching frequency spikes on the output.
