No, it won't work as an easy bolt in.
It would need an input shaft change. And if you have to pay to have that done, parts and labor. It would exceed the value of just buying another t5.
Well he could also just get one of the longer bellhousings and that would solve the problem. But then I don't know if the shifter will line up as nice as you'd like.

Since the transmission sets further back, this also affects the driveshaft. There may or may not be enough extra room for the yoke to travel before it bottoms out.
