I can't comment on the 3.0L but the 4.0 (3.9)L is close but not a simple change out. Lots of bolt on things have to be swapped.

Test Point,
If you have time on your hands I'm curious to know what would have to be swapped to make a 3.9L work with a 4.0.

Thanks

AVOS is the forum's engine swap wizard. Here are a couple posts discussing the 4.2/4.0/3.9 engine swaps. With used 3.9 engines now appearing in wreaking yards for $1000 vs. $5000 for a 4.0/4.2 I am sure there is going to be a booming business in these swaps.
