I would say max 500Ah 24V, so you can charge at max 10% of the total capacity.

To understand it; today I have 4 x 180Ah = 720Ah total capacity. Could I theoretical increase to 4 x 500Ah = 2000Ah total capacity. Or is the configuration as I have today too large for my charger, so it should be decreased to 4 x 125Ah = about 500Ah total capacity?

I have 4 x 180Ah

You have 360Ah @ 24v.

OK, great and understood. Then I safely can increase the bank to maximum 4 x 250Ah when I replace the batteries. Thank you for clarification.

You have now 2x 180Ah/24V = 360Ah !
