Can I replace rear glass using a donor phone?

My brother has two of these phones, both broken in different ways. One has shattered rear glass and the front screen is falling off. I think I can easily sort the front screen issue but I wondered about the rear glass. The other phone has intact rear glass and I wondered if I could use it as a donor phone or if the glass will always end up broken in the removal process.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

While you cannot swap the back glass you can swap out the rear housing between them. You can follow the iPhone 8 Plus Lightning Connector Assembly Replacement to get there.
