mivec has variable intake and exhaust cams so the short answer is no...
there are also variable intake runners and a ton of other stuff that go into a mivec engine....

if you were even going to consider this as a viable option then i recommend dropping in a mivec engine you'll save a heap of money

I know someone had fitting a GR block with MIVEC head, as the block are exactly the same, all those variable inlet....etc are part of MIVEC head, so I don't see why you can't do it.

I'm am very sure, as I've seen this person & his FTO a lot of time since he done it, & the car run just like any other MIVEC motor from the factory.
