No, they cannot be straight swapped. You would need to swap the whole rear axle to use the M rears, and I think the diff too.

And considering the price for the M setup, you're better off going with a Brembo/ATE/StopTech BBK kit.

328mm 4 piston Brembo BBK with cross drilled rotors.
I paid about $1250 for the setup during a clearance sale a BMW dealership was having. MSRP on this setup I believe is in the 1600-1800 range.
Comes with pads and goodridge stainless lines.

Very nice setup, but you'll be needing 18" rims to put around these.
