Hopefully the door latch is aligned right now and you can install the 'coils one at a time, because I'm still fussing with one of the doors on my BMW and I've loosened those screws at least a dozen times and I'm still not happy. Maybe a couple of dozen.
I doubt a helicoil will be able to withstand that.

Is there a way to take the latch apart and weld nuts to the back?
