No.
No torque arm mount, for starters; not rotated so that it will clear the floor pan; and a few other details.

Re: 5spd swap
The most common and popular swap is T-56 from an LT1 F-body 93-97. The 5-speeds are not known for being able to handle much power.
Here are a few links on a T-56 swap. There's a long informative post on here titled T-56, questions that aren't normally answered.
