If you're talking about full coilovers (i.e. shocks with adjustable perch and springs), then the answer is No. The fronts will bolt up perfectly, but the rear shock fork will be too narrow to get over the LCA. You could try shaving the LCA bushing a little bit, or take the LCA off and get an Integra 90-01/Civic 88-95 bushing pressed in, but that's a pain. You could always use the front shocks and see if anyone would trade you for a rear set from a 92-95 Civic or 94-01 Integra (those are interchangeable, except for the ITR).

just swapping the sleeve onto your shock will work fine.

Just for future reference, a coilover refers to any shock/spring combo where the coils go over the shock. Coilover shocks are what you have now, adjustable coilovers are things like the threaded body all inclusive Tein SS/Omnipower Street type setups, and adjustable coilover sleeves are what you are talking about. I think most brand x type places advertise their adj coilover sleeves as fitting 88-00 civic and 90-01 Integra, since the sleeves and perches are the same, and the only difference is spring rate (if that).
