Sure. If it's out of a Tacoma, you might as well swap the links out for leafs. Not easy, but it can and has been done. Post pics.

I have been wondering much the same thing because I wouldn't mind putting lockers on my rig. I really like ARB but I am a bit afraid of the reliability of the air flow delivery system. I wish ARB didn't need a constant flow of air to stay engaged, instead a burst to engage and another to disengage.

For the same reason I don't trust the exposed electric motor to hold up to repeated whacks from a log of rock, If I could do it I would want the electric E-locker with a cable mod.
