To change your Operator in Modern Warfare 3, you will have to go back to the Strike Team tab. In this, you can build your strike teams to play with in Zombies. Once you have selected your chosen operators, each of them will be available to play in Modern Warfare zombies.

From here, you can entirely build your own team. All the operators from MW2 and MW3 will be available. You could put together the perfect hip-hop ensemble of Snoop Dogg, Niki Minaj, and Klaus.

These aren’t exactly the most vital pieces of gear and can be grabbed again with a few playthroughs. However, it is worth bearing in mind, especially if you are planning to change all operators in Modern Warfare.
