No. The airbag is not a self-contained unit. It relies on a set of sensors and a computer to control it. Swapping a wheel with an airbag installed into a vehicle not designed for it is very dangerous. Airbags which are disconnected are easy to set off via any stray electrical charge.
If you want to swap in an airbag wheel, have the airbag properly removed by qualified people first.
