You can but it will be a fair bit of extra work.
For 1 the wheel base on the extra cab is longer than dual and single.
Also the rear cab mounts will need to cut off the chasi and moved for the different sized cab.
Also tray mounts will probably be in different spots too.

A new tailshaft would be easier and cheaper ;)

None of the cabs swap to other chassis too easily, I would keep ringing around or buy a complete car in bad shape and part it out.
