I doubt it's that easy. the engine is fairly new to the Tranny as well, so I don't know if it will be in the 56. I believe LR had to do a lot of development work on it to get the result they want.
It also goes onto a different gearbox.
All in all, anything is possible, but I doubt it will be easy.
Why would you want to do it?

Stick wi your td5 coz the transit engine is ****!
We got dead transits lyin all over the place at work, jumped timing jains resultin in broken cam carriers, bust piston rings resulting in ****ing out of oil from all seals resulting in fooked bottom ends requiring new short motor, fooked egr valves with no delivery date (25000 on back order!! You think they have an issue wi those?).
gimme a td5 any day, or fiddle wi the pump and turbo on 200/ 300tdi
