Not really, although most parts are just the same, the matte version has the wifi/bluetooth board in the top case and that makes the replacement partially incompatible. If you would be happy without any wireless connection it shouldn’t be a problem instead.

Thanks for your reply!

Can I install WiFi/Bluetooth on the board or are the Matte and Glossy MacBooks of Mid 2009 are using different internals?

@lorenzm It's quite some time since I had the chance to work on a matte 2009 Macbook Pro and I believe I don't have around any spares left to take a look unfortunately. Matte and glossy do have different internals..as I said the Matte has wifi/Bt board in topcase, whereas the glossy has them in the assembly. I honestly couldn't tell if some mod would be possible, I am sorry I can't be of further help.
