Why would it not be possible to till under the remaining strawberry junebearer plants after they have produced, and plant new plants then--in mid to late June?
 
It would be possible,  with a couple of caveots - where will you get your 'new' plants?  if you don't have dormant plants,  then you are going to be transplanting actively growing ones,  which is problematic -
 
also,  time will be short to grow and root runners starting this late (assuming matted row culture) - strawberries struggle a bit with midwestern weather in july/early august -
 
if you have the time and dedication,  much is possible - there will not be much room for error -
