Of course not. It's a completely different car with a totally different EFI system.

And the AFM is not much of a restriction on most RX-7s.

on these cars exhaust restriction plays a much bigger roll in performance than intake restriction, relatively speaking.

They cannot be swapped without some trickery, and even when done, it throws the fuel curve off.
