NO, it is not possible to fit an iPhone 5S (or 5C) front cam on an iPhone 5 mainly because the "assembly" that contains among others the front cam and the proxy and light sensors is differently assembled and attaches differently on the logic board, and sits differently in the body of the iPhone.

Besides, the front cameras on the iPhone 5S, 5C, and 5 are all 720p.

By the way, and for the same reasons, the front cams from the iPhone 6/6+ models won't fit either.

no you can't do that, and the 5 and 5c front facing cameras are the same resolution so that won't be necessary :)
