You can swap over the complete door, but keep in mind you would loose your seat belt mounting point iirc. But the easiest thing would just be bolt on a set of doors from a fastback/ coupe.

^ Not exactly a direct answer.

The door panels will not swap to the convertible. The doors themselves can be interchanged, but you'll need to either remove the secondary catch in the doorjam or cut a hole in the door to accept it. The wiring is all the same so you can swap harnesses as long as you have the same power options, but you'll have to keep your non-power mirrors unless you add a switch somewhere and wire in the SE power mirrors. Once you put the door on, the interior rear quarter panel won't line up right and you won't have a seatbelt, so those are things to consider.
