Yes it can be done, but to do it properly is alot of fiddly work and it would be easier to use an original style replacement gearbox.
You will have to swap the bellhousing, and in doing so replace the front gasket, and make bearing adapters (to suit the larger bellhousing recess to the smaller TA22 style bearings). You can bolt the bell housing up without making the adapters, however this will place extra strain on the already undersized bearings.
You'll also need to swap the extension housing and use the later model shifter back style - this will allow you to bolt and screw the console back in place. Having done all that, you'll then need to swap the tailshaft yoke to the 20 spline item, as opposed to the 22 spline Sprinter yoke.
I'd suggest you start looking for a Sprinter box, and save yourself the hassle!
