Having watched the refurbishment of the wooden Anson progress at Duxford over a number of years, I think the wing, like the Mosquito was a one piece unit from tip to tip. It would be easier to graft on a replacement section for the missing piece than taking the aircraft apart to replace from the centre section, even if that was possible. My understanding is that there were "approved repairs" for this type of work involving scarf joints to the woodwork. I could be wrong.
