Is it possible to switch logicboards? iPhone 4

Is it possible to switch logicboards ( motherboards ) between a broken iphone 4 and a good 2nd hand phone to retrieve files (pictures ect )?

the broken iphone just has a broken screen and battery, so its cheaper to buy a working 2nd hand iphone 4 and just switch boards but i was wondering if this would work or that there could possibly be compatability problems.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
