They've tried it before in the 90s with insignia jackets. It wasn't bad for a half suit/out of costume type attire, but their individual suits are too iconic to be fully replaced.

The X-Men for the most part, their costumes are iconic as a team with only a handful of exceptions to this(because of how the majority first appeared within the X-Men books as new recruits/students). Each character premiered generally as some connection to the team, hence why they have the similar uniforms that reflect the overall school. The same is true about the FF. The unity and family nature of their team dynamic is what defines them.

The Avengers, New Warriors, among other teams though are more iconic as separate characters that came together for various reasons that then formed a team bond because of those reasons. Hence for the most part their hero costumes stay more unique to themselves barring out of civ outfit enhancements or mild additions like the jackets. They are more like friends that share a domicile occasionally. So they each remain having their own independent attire.

It really varies team to team, but the avengers shouldn't get full on team costumes. It just doesn't work to their core as a team and what each element stands for.
