if after reviewing the chosen article I've found that it simply lacks credible sources to update the article further, may I choose a new one?

Absolutely! I would definitely check with your instructor, but most are fine with students changing the topic. With finding articles, your Wikipedia Expert is an invaluable resource. The following link can be helpful as well:

Yes! That's why we recommend looking for sources before starting substantive edits. Some topics will not be suitable for Wikipedia because of a lack of reliable sources, or cannot be expanded because everything about the subject is already included in the article.
