Most likely not, since the size of the exhaust valves are smaller than the intake valves...

You can swap them, but your valvetrain will still be weakest on the intake side. I would suggest upgrading to at least ITR intake springs and then swap the stock intake side to the exhaust side. I wouldn't bother doing anything otherwise.
