I have aligned my molecules to a 3D reference using 'Superimpose Conformers'. Can I now write an SDF file with these new aligned (updated) coords for each molecule rather than the original 3D coords?

Yes. Admittedly, it is not really obvious. The Superimpose method creates a new (hidden) column 'Best Match'. It is hidden, because in most cases it contains just the same structure from the 'Structure' column. The new aligned 3D-coordinates are stored as another hidden column assigned to 'Best match'. Thus, use 'File->Save Special->SD File'. In the dialog choose 'Best match' as structure column and 'Superposition' as coordinates. Then you may also choose 'Include Reference Molecule' to also include the superposition target molecule oin the SD-file.
