Broadly speaking (particularly for Australian LP Carriers), Yes the gearbox "is the same as used in the CMP trucks apart from some output shaft and minor differences depending on the year"
Ford didn't really have a variety of gearboxes to choose from in the 30's and 40's. There was only one design (actually a Warner Gear design) of 4 speed, but it could be altered for different applications with different input and output shaft arrangements, or external attachments like the rear mounting feet or speedo cable output position. The Carrier of course has a remote gear change, but this just utilises a modified Truck gear lever.
Some of the specific attachments for Carriers though can be hard to find, so unless all the bits come with the carrier, converting a regular Truck box may not be that straightforward.
