transmission swap?

Okay so I have a 05 4 port AT rx8,
and I know in 06 the replaced the transmission with a 6 speed instead if the original 4 speed.

Now what I want to know is are these transmissions interchangeable?

The link he posted was for switching to the 6 speed auto...

https://www.rx8club.com/specific-per...-speed-184453/

https://www.rx8club.com/specific-per...-speed-163363/

There are 2 more that were the first few when searching "site:rx8club.com 4 speed to 6 speed". Basically if you have more money than sense then yes it can be done but you are better off selling your car and buying a 6 speed.
