On the fronts yes.
You can put the 5 lug hub on,and then put the 4 piston brakes and vented rotors on.The shield may need to be "finessed" a bit But it can be done.( I did it.)
But what are you gonna do for the back since the bearing assembly essentially holds the 5 lug hub assembly to the back "spindle assembly".
So really just get the back intact and make sure the bushings are good.
