According to Bitmain yes it's the same board for the L3,L3+,L3++,D3,A3,X3

So all you would need to do is flash the firmware you need.
You may or may not need to use the SD card method depending on the revision of the firmware that is already on it.
There are guides on the Bitmain site.

You are correct. I misread it. I was thinking he was asking about swapping a dead control board for a good one between units.
Something I have had to do a lot on Bitmain gear :(
