Default Will a radiator fan from a 1992 940GL fit a 1996 850?? Please read!

Hi,
I have a 1996 Volvo 850 and recently found out I am in need of a new radiator fan after my car overheated while I was parked the other day. My uncle has a 1992 Volvo 940GL which he is getting rid of for various reasons but in which the radiator fan still works fine. Would that fan fit into my new car?

The part costs about 175/200 at most places I have looked. While I will spend the money if I have to, it would be much easier on me to use my uncle's as I am still in school.

My uncle also mentioned the possibility that an OEM from a Toyota is compatible with older Volvo's. Has anyone heard of this or know anything about it?

Any help is appreciated, including tips on the installation of the radiator fan. Seems to be a fairly simple job.
Thank you.

Thanks, I just did some research and looked up both parts and they don't seem to be compatible. Here's hoping the installation goes well.
