Default D5252T automatic → manual swap

Hello!
Is the D52525T engine from P80 V70 (1997) swappable from automatic transmission (AW50-42LE) to manual transmission (M56L2) or are they different?

I have a situation where my Volvo's engine broke down and I need a new one. The transmission is 5-speed manual (M56L2) and I found one 2.5 TDI engine on Facebook Marketplace, but it's connected to a 4-speed automatic transmission (AW50-42LE). Is it possible to replace it or rather not and I need to look for an engine that's also from manual transmission?

Engines should be swappable, just use your existing wire harness.
