The auto's are completely different... and as both are electronically controlled ( using different electronics and programming ) an auto swap would IMHO be a difficult task.
And whilst i can't remember the exact details there are differences in the transfer input shaft on later models, so caution is advised. Its actually not that much of a job to pull the TCase so you could just suck it and see without a great commitment or cost.
On the early versions the rubi case was a straight bolt on interchangeable fit but when Jeep changed IIRC from NP to NV cases things got different.

It does sound odd but the auto box has to be different, petrol revs at 3g at 100 k's an hour, diesel revs at 2g at 100 k's an hour, same 3.73 gear ratio, torque converter can slip and take up some difference but not that much I'm afraid
