Yes. That said, your drum parking brake cables won't transfer to the disc rear and the drum combination valve won't provide the best braking performance.

Re: ? ABOUT IRON REAR BRACKS ON 92

easiest route is probably to just repair the 10bolt drum
rear in the car instead of converting to the 9bolt-
take the cover off the 10bolt and see what the trouble is
-especially check for a loose pinion nut,bad or loose
carrier bearings,chipped teeth(often caused by loose
pinion nut)and metal in the oil.
