Yes, that's what I did with mine. When I put a 5spd in my 300D, I used a 190e 5spd front driveshaft half and a 260e read DS half. The only tricky part was matching the 25mm spline in the middle. Some cars had a 35mm spline but I think all w201s have 25mm. Check to make sure.
On all w201s and w124s, the length of front DS half is determined by the transmission and the read DS half is determined by the wheel base. Some cars also use larger fkex disks but again that's 300D and e420s.
