What you are suggesting has often been done on MTBs and 'cross bikes, and is sometimes referred to as a 'mullet'. As long as the fork has the same dimensions (length,offset), there shouldn't be a problem. Well, other than trying to get the two brake levers to match each other enough that it doesn't feel weird to ride it.
