    It is not possible to re-parent or update an attachment's ParentId field via Data Loader to transfer attachments to other object's records. However, workarounds are available in order to move attachments to new or different records.

    It is not possible with any process- not with data loader, process builder or apex. You can use apex to copy the attachment with the other parentId and then delete the original attachment.
