Yes. All it takes is cutting and welding to adapt the pipes to the configuration, and possibly splicing in a little new pipe to the junction.
2-3 hundred dollars* for labor at your local muffler shop would probably do it, provided you could find one adventurous enough to take the job.
*Around here, they want $150 just to bolt in a system that fits and requires no fab. YMMV

I am pretty sure the fit and piping angles are all the same from 05-13 base. When buying an exhaust system online they are only listed as C6 2005-2013. The only differences would be a ZO6 or a ZR-1. The NPP system wire up for proper functioning could be your bigger challenge, unless your just going with a toggle switch.

If you don't have NPP then a NPP in a Box is needed as there will be nothing there for a toggle switch to control

The left muffler is the same but the right muffler pipe is bent at a different angle so if you are looking for a direct fit you would need a set off a 2008.
Or you could buy a set off a 2009-2013 with the x pipe and install it

Simple mod is to cut the pipe off your current passenger side muffler and swap it on to the NPP muffler. The driver's side will fit as is.
The no-weld solution would be to cut the NPP pipe off and leave a 2-3" stub. Then cut off your current pipe real close to the muffler and take it to a muffler shop and have it expanded to fit over the NPP pipe stub. Now all you need is a pipe clamp rather than a weld.

Just had 09 Z06 Bi-mode installed on my 05 Z51. Angles and length are both off to connect to Kooks Xpipe which I didn't want dude to touch. Cut pipes off my stock mufflers and cut 3" pipes off Z06. Stock pipes slid in to 3" stubs and welded. $95. labor!
