    The areas that will cause problems with a frame swap are seatpost and steertube length on forks. Getting the headset cups out of one and into the other is possible at home but best left to your LBS. You'll possibly need new complete gear and brake cables, except for the front brake.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
