So I just bought a new pair of skis and managed to peel the base and edge away from core. The skis will be warrantied, but I'm left without skis right now. So now I'm in the market for a pair of skis for the end of the season. One pair selling locally were mounted for telemark bindings so I want to make sure I'll be able to mount alpine bindings on them before I buy. I really don't know anything about telemark bindings so I can find out the make and model if needed. I'll probably be mounting sth2 or attack bindings, but possibly look pivots.

Not really sure what your asking; get screw hole pattern from possible fixed heel bindings and compare to holes in skis.

Generally there's not much overlap between free heel and fixed heel hole patterns, but chances are there will be at least one or two that are close; fill old holes appropriately (not simple plastic plugs - needs to be beefier) and drill away.
