How can i change poller interval for already created data sources ?

You can change the poller interval at any time. But existing rrd files will NOT work! And there's no way to change the STEP of an already existing rrd file. Even export and import won't help here.
Bad luck

Can it be changed directly in the database under rrd_step in poller_item? Just guessing here...

Sure. But it is an rrdtool issue, not a cacti one. From what I saw at rrdtool-users mailing list, I assume you won't see such a feature in the near future. But simply ask there to get an authoritative answer

Surely you can change it in the db. But this will have NO effect on EXISTING rrd files.
In other words: please change it using the panels only. Those changes will only affect new rrd files and there is NO KNOWN WAY WHATSOEVER to apply this to existing rrd files. Sorry for disappointing you, but that's the way it is
