I personally would be inclined to let him have a short hibernation , so long as his health and weight are good by September. But don't worry about that now, you got time to do more research .

Just let her settle in and relax ( that's you ) make the changes to diet slowly.

That's what I would do
If this tortoise has hibernated for the last 40 odd years, then they might not have a choice:0)
But I agree with the hibernation even if its for a short time:0)
