No HSD pack is compatible outside similar models (e.g., Toyota Highlander/Lexus RX450h) with another when looked at as a whole. Those of different capacities are never compatible.

The internals of just about everything are compatible, i.e., the 6 cell modules are compatible.

The Highlander/RX450h are unique in that they use an 8 cell module.

The battery management requirements of packs absolutely prevent one from interchanging them.

It's also a moot point. There would be zero gains and likely a very small loss associated with increasing the weight of the vehicle.
