Noble titles are bestowed by the king, even if it's a high ranking noble family they are still in the palm of the king "on paper", unless they revolt.She can't rewind the clock. The current marquis decides who's the next marquis.
I'd argue the king decides the next head of the family when there's a dispute big enough to warrant it.
Though I doubt even the king would have a good time trying to appoint someone without blood ties, that's besides the point though.
