As djb noted, yes, but only for brake cables. The shifter mechanisms in the levers are different so your shifter hands can't be swapped.
When I put cables under bar tape, I usually use filament tape which is quite strong and non-stretchy to hold the cable housing to the bars so the housing stays where I want it. Only need the filament tape in three or four spots, not fully wrapped like bar tape.
In my friends case, it was a mountain bike so no bar tape involved, would only be a 10 minute job at most on his bike.
