Is it possible to swap a 250z engine out of a 1990 Nissam Maxima into my 1997 Nissan Altima?

I am strongly considering this, but don’t want to start doin stuff and then realize it can’t be done.

What do you all think?

Thanks  
Dan

wtf is a 250z? I would recommend not strongly doing anything you know nothing about. and even if this motor existed why would you want to put it in a 1997 altima?
