yes but...
crossmember bolts are same width (ie chassis rails) but are 1" further apart on the same rail.
you will need to make up radius rod mounts at the front, but you might be able to bolt on KE70 mounts (with a fair bit of welding.. different shape chassis rails) struts will fit (spring wise) but strut tops are likely to be different..
steering arms are slightly longer, which may cause issues to bump steer etc. (although KE20 steering column fits also  )
it has been done (and also same but with RX7 struts), and i think it is worthwhile, but there is a bit of fabricating involved.
