Default Another quick tranny question

Can I use the tranny from a passat in my car. My car is a 98 A4 1.8 fwd. I found a tranny for a 98 passat and I am new to vw and audis so I am still learning everything about them. I was told that the parts are interchangeable between the two and was just wanting to confirm this
