I would think so but easiest way to tell is go to your local parts store, see i fthe part #'s are the same if so then there is your answer if not see if they have both in stock and see what the difference is. Some times its not enough to matter at all. Also from what I have read about the pumps that have the rexervoir on them like yours is then the internals are all the same so it will work no problem.

'87 Monte Carlo SS,with '89 IROC 350,700 trans, blew up 3.73 posi stuck with crappy 2.73's neeed gears! hooker headers, flowmaster 2 1/2" exhaust true dualls, recently installed a set of alum vette heads 58cc, new cam for a paxton, recently installed paxton, OMG need a posi bad. Found a guy who can build me a ford 9" (yep sorry guys) for less than 500 then comes all the goodies such as disk brakes so on and so on, will it ever end?? I hope not!!

I don't know for sure, I doubt it without being able to look at the 3.1 PS pump itself. The 92 had serpentine belts and the 87 had vbelts, so that may be a problem. Along with the pump being from a v6 and wanting to use it on a v8... its hard to say.
