There are folks who have done the 603/606 swap into W201's, for sure, and they are certainly capable and powerful. In my mind's eye, the 6 cyl diesels seem to be a bit oversized/overweight for the nose of a W201. That's just my opinion, and I'm sure that others may disagree.
That being said - it doesn't cost anything to daydream, so right now I'm daydreaming about an OM605.
