You can move it, just find where you want it and put in a new junction box. It might be tricky fishing the wires through, but if you're not moving it far you shouldn't have any interferance from stud work.

Some companies that manufacture fixtures like Progress.com will have fixtures that are newer that still have outlets in them. If you want the same kind of fixture you could go that route. If you actually want to replace the fixture and have a receptacle added you can get a cut in box and some 12-2 romex wire and plug and cover. Good luck, pulling wire is not the easiest thing in the world to do. You might consider calling an electrician if you decide to add a box to your home.

If you have a wall switch and don't mind using the same area for your receptacle, there is a receptacle/switch combination that fits into the single gang box that the original switch is in.
This receptacle is also a GFCI receptacle as required for bathrooms. The Levitan brand is one of the brand names but most of the major manufacturers have them too although they are kind of special and you probably won't find one on the shelf of some of the smaller home centers.
Good Luck ! ! !

You're not supposed to be using that receptacle, anyway.
You need to have an electrician add a GFI receptacle in the bathroom wall.
