You would have an easier time putting first gen Honda Insight front brakes on, the drum brakes are not set up for live axles unless you go back to a 1984 to 1991 Honda Wagovan with 4 wheel drive, but it's hard to say if those would even work.
Issue is, drum brakes tend to grab more and are more likely to lock up then disk brakes so your braking is not going to be nearly as smooth nor safe and cars that crash don't save you anything.
