Yes it can be done. It requires drilling all new mounting holes and finding the hardware to bolt the GFX to the car. If you can go to a junkyard and take a GFX set off a parts car it makes things much easier, not only do you get the bolts and nuts you need, but you can see how they come off the car, which makes it easier when its time to re-install them on your own vehicle.

and you'll need the bumper covers from a gfx car in order for it to match.

Not to take away from Arynock's topic or anything but I have a similar question. What if I wanted to use a berlinetta or 82 - 84 front bumper cover with 91 - 92 / Iroc gfx. Could it work?

The two nose pieces are completely different. I recently upgraded my 82 z28 to the 91-92 style. The bottom of the 82 nose is more narrow than the 92 style. I could not see any easy way to mount the lower chin spoiler from the 92 to the 82 nose and have it look anywhere near decent. I would recommend biting the bullet and finding a complete bumper cover and GFX set. Just my $.02.
