Look at alf_data/solr folder. There is a file with some instructions about configuring a new certificate. The problem, basically is that SOLR is targetting 8443 port and using client authentication. As you have changed the issuer CA, SOLR can't be authenticated any more.

Is this step also possible with a existing certificate + keystore?

It's possible, but you must change SOLR client certificate.

So, can i replace the SOLR client certificate with the GeoTrust certificates or should it be in a different way?

You should read information on README.txt file provided by alfresco in alf_data/solr

There different ways: include a certificate from GeoTrust, change SSL protocolo negotiation…
