Yes, but you'll need spacers for the rear lower mounts. Some steel collars or several thick washers should do the trick.

bring the bolts with you and test which washers fit.

oh i see so they will fit on the front no problem but its in the rear where the problem is. They will still fit but it is a bad camber issue if i don't use these washers? would i be better off on getting somthing a little better for a set up?

He posted the wrong link; ignore everything you read there.
It has nothing to do with alignment. The rear damper fork is simply too large to fit tightly over the control arm bushing. It leaves a significant amount of space on each side, which can cause undue stress on the mount bolt and may make a lot of noise over bumps.
