Yes, but not without modification. You need a new cam, longer valves and also you'd probably have to put a restrictor the the oil supply galleries since they no longer need to feed pressure to the hydrualic lifters, I'm sure there's sometime else I'm forgeting. If it were me, I'd just get a solid lifter JH head and start from there.
