Swap broken iPad screen with unbroken screen from non-functional iPad?

I have an iPad 2 with shattered glass - other than the broken glass, it works fine. I have another iPad 2 with perfect glass but it doesn't work at all (confirmed dead at Apple Store).

Is it possible to remove the unbroken glass from the non-functioning iPad and use it to replace the shattered glass on the other iPad?

I see glass replacement kits available, but since I already have an iPad with good glass, I am wondering if I can just use that instead of buying a complete replacement kit.

Thanks!

Matt
