Can Curt Q25 Fifth Wheel Hitch from Older GM Truck be Adapted to fit 2024 Chevy Silverado 3500HD

Question

Question:

I traded into a 2024 Chevrolet 3500 single rear wheel 8foot bed with the GM puck system. I still have my Q25 5th wheel hitch from a 2019 3500 Dual rear wheel truck with the 8foot bed and puck system but the base plates that mount to the trucks puck system are different measurements. Can I use the old system by just purchasing the new baseplates?
