No you can’t, the Surface Pro 5 and Pro 6 displays have different touch controllers and are not cross-compatible.

I have installed the pro 5 display on a surface pro 6 without issues. I’m not sure sure where you got your info from but they are 100% cross compatible.

I'm going to give a tentative "yes" with the caveat that I'm not speaking from direct experience.
Looking at pictures of replacement screens for both the Pro 5 and Pro 6, the cabling looks to be identical. The specs (resolution, physical dimensions, etc) for the screens are also the same. I also found part number "LP123WQ1 SP A1" being sold on eBay as a replacement screen for the Surface Pro 6 *AND* the Surface Pro 5.
