Yes – I think building up your deliberate practice “endurance” makes a lot of sense, and whether it’s with a timer, or simply checking in with yourself every so often to gauge whether you’re still practicing effectively/thoughtfully or not is a good idea.
As far as replacing old habits with new ones go, sometimes it can help to amplify the “error” of the old habit, so that the old and new habits become increasingly distinct.

Even alternating between old and new habits a couple times can sometimes help to reinforce the new habit – something like old way x1, new way x1, old way x1, new way x3, old way x1, new way x3.
