Need to move this box about 2 ft to the right as taking down wall. Would it be something I could do myself

Internet modem (Huawei) is fairly simple just need to move the phone/broadband socket.
Assuming you have enough length in the cable on the wall, should be easy enough.
The one to the right of it with the explosion sticker looks a bit scary though!

That's a laser warning. So unless you have the right background to move fibre optic gears, I would use a professional.

I've moved one before and didnt need any gear.
that box is just a junction if I recall correctly.
The incoming fiber is wound around inside of it for strain relief and can just be unplugged, moved and reconnected.
