Yes, it would work, but there would be some definite drawbacks (at least for me). The connection points are the same for both molds between the cab, trailer and chectplate, so physically it should fit just fine.
Here are my issues with it:
For scale, the CW Ultra Magnus head is much better than the TM Ultra Magnus head for a leader class figure. The die cast TM head is just too small. On top of that, it would be completely covered by the helmet except for the eyes. So by switching the cabs, you end up losing the best UM head for the scale of the figure.
On the aesthetics side, the white cab with the red and grey trailer is going to look a bit off. UM's trailer does have some red in it, so the PMOP/Ginrai cab should look fine there.
I'm just not seeing what you are trying to accomplish, especially with potentially having to paint the area that the chestplate doesn't cover.
