The motor mounts on a FC is in the middle were as a fd is at the rear of the motor. Its 2:00 AM so im sleepy and i might have this all backwards but in a nutshell. No it wont work unless you want to spend time making motor mounts or paying 500 bucks off the internet. Im not even sure they make it that way, they do make kits to put a FD motor into an FC but not many do it since the motors are so simular, you mainly just get the twin turbo set up when most people dont even want the twins at high HP.
Much easer to find a FD motor, unless you have a couple grand invested into the 13BT motor.
I have an FD motor that i would like to put into an FC but it would require more work then a 20B motor install, and money. Im kinda shying away from doing it but theres 6 grand put into the motor so im still tossing it up. Im sure a swap thats the exact opposite will come out to be able the same....
