Yes you can use screws, that's exactly what the window installation guys use. Just get some that have the same size head as the original posts and sink them in so the head is around the same space from the channel. If installed properly they will not come loose. Don't forget to coat the channel with your favorite rust inhibitor (mine is Eastwoods "Rust Encapsulator") before putting your ribbon or glass in.
