guage replacement in stock cluster

I suppose anything can be done with enough effort and money.
This is not an easy mod probably by any skill level.
The cluster is really an integrated circuit board with individual components. With enough hacking, cutting and modifying: sure. But it is going to be one heck of a job and a hack at that.
You'll probably have to gut your aftermarket gauge and somehow shoehorn it into the stock mount. There will be no going back, so I recommend buying up an automatic cluster (slightly cheaper) and play with that....
You might be probably better off building a whole new cluster. There is a lot of room behind the stock cluster that you probably could cast a carbon fiber body and install whatever you want...and spend your time interfacing with the wiring harness.
Good Luck
