06 - 09 Shocks/Springs interchangable?

I know someone is probably smacking their head and saying "NO!" out loud but i figured it would be easy enough to ask.

Are 09 shocks/springs interchangeable on a 06?

If you mean retrofit stock '09 suspension on an '06, you'll have trouble fitting the rear shocks to the hub, since there is a unique flange at the bottom of the later shocks.
