9000 into 9-5 aero engine transplant

Can a 1989 SAAB 9000 engine with turbo be put into a 2002 SAAB 9-5 Aero with 4 cylinder turbo engine?
My son has the 9-5 with 95K miles on it with blown head gasket (possibly more damage) and I can get a 9000 engine with about 98 k miles at a very reasonable cost. I have done other make mid-engine, front-engine engine transplants and would like an opinion if this is doable or does it make more sense to rebuild head and bottom end of current engine.
Thanks in advance!
