Jaguar Neck on a Jazzmaster?

I have a Jaguar and I'm simply addicted to the short scale neck. I also have a Jagmaster but to my hands the neck is subtly (annoyingly) different from my Jaguar. Also, I like the Jag/JM trem rather than the Strat trem of the Jagmaster.

So I want to know, is it possible to (fairly easily) put a Jaguar neck on a jazzmaster body? Or is routing the body of a Jag to put in JM pickups the way to go for a "real" Jagmaster ( or maybe a Jagmosrite?)

Because of the scale differences, you'd have to move the bridge to get proper intonation. Warmoth sells conversion necks that allow you to do this kind of thing without moving things around, but they may be all for Strats.
