Yes, the pistons, rods, bearings, and valves are all interchangeable. But, while everything is apart, I would consider replacing the wear items like pistons, rings and bearings with new. Have the new block and your existing crank and camshaft checked and machined if needed. Any good rebuilder can do this and tell you what you will need to buy. Everything you'll need is commercially available.
