No, you cannot.
The SIM tray is different. The internals of the phone are different.
The operating system is different.

Well it seems that they are not that different. seems to be that on the non dual sim s5 only the connector socket is not soldered. the solder points are there.
of course also the middle frame is different which would be a problem to change out.
the firmware is different right but i guess that with a custom this also would be chnagbale. i guess i will start a thread at xda

@hanswurst31, are you sure both are using the same SoC (CPU chipset)? There are 2 versions, one with the Exynos, and one with the Snapdragon. Both ROMs are completely different.
n o. the g906 uses a newer soc snapdragon 805. the pcbs are also not identical, but maybe compatible....
@hanswurst31, there are different/more chips on one of the boards next to where the other SIM slot should be. I highly doubt compatibility.
Don't bother (You will be wasting your time for nothing I'm warning you now), you will need to reprogram a second IMEI to the phone, modify the firmware, modem, cert, EFS file and lots more to get this working and yes expensive hardware and tools is required to do this.
I don't think this is even theoretically possible if you aren't a samsung engineer.
