Rx8 Shocks/Struts on a Mazda3 hatch?

My friend owns a Mazda 3 hatchback and we want to know if my OEM dampers will fit on his car. Anyone know if this is possible? Any feedback is helpfull. Thanks.

Considering the basic suspension configurations are different for the two cars, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess no. Though both have multi-link setups in the back, a shock for a front double wishbone setup does not easily translate to one needed for a MacPherson strut setup.
