You can maneuver with reaction wheels and a charged tether. You likely could get away with the most massive (ideally central) satellite using this, and the rest can be "pulled" using this new system relative to it.
It sounds like this whole scheme would then be limited by the power storage capacity of the satellites. Lots of solar, good batteries, or maybe RTGs (though not sure how much that would be accepted, in orbit)
