Yeah, they'll fit, but it wont be right.
The older chassis had completely different suspension geometry, shock dimensions and stroke.
I wouldn't.
Edit: Do you mean just coilover sleeves or do you mean actual coilovers?
If you're talking just sleeves, then yeah, they'll fit with no issues. The rates may be different but that's about it.

Not if they're just sleeves.

Softer springs usually means LESS bouncy.

If they're some kung fu racing cheap coilover sleeves, the rates are probably sky high or wack in some way anyway. A lot of cheapo companies dont have different rates for different cars.
I dont even know if some legit companies have different sleeveover spring rates for different cars.
Spend the hour and a half to slap them on and see how it works out.
Remember to clock your bushings and pray to God that you dont break any bolts in the rear suspension.
