Yes. I'm sure there are more specifics, but I've done it.
I put a 2002 ecu in a 2001 car so I could use my 2002 specific tuning stuff.
The 2002 ecu had the same numbers on and and the same four letter code, and came out of the exact type car just different year.

They are all the same basically from 1999-2002 in the car.

BUT of coarse you will have to put in the right programming for it or it will be wrong.
