Can the motherboard be swapped?

Hello, I had an Asus X515EA that I adored, but unfortunately, a voltage fluctuation caused a capacitor to overload and burn out. As a result, the laptop shows no signs of life and won't work. I took it to a specialist who advised me that it wouldn't be worth removing the capacitor, as that alone would cost around $60. Instead, I could sell the laptop for parts and find a better, more reliable one for a similar price.

After doing some research, I discovered that the motherboard of the Asus X515JA (the previous generation) has the same layout as the X515EA. This leads me to believe that I could potentially use the chassis of the X515EA with the motherboard from the X515JA. The motherboard for the X515JA is available for $70 on AliExpress from a seller with good reviews.

Would this transfer be possible? I understand that it may not be an upgrade, but I only need the laptop for daily office work and don't require a powerful CPU or GPU. Please let me know if this transfer would be possible to do.
