Jim, it may work, but I am pretty sure that the real deal AC blower fan
motor is actually more powerful than the dash blower.  That isn't to say
that you couldn't use a dash blower fan and get decent performance out of
it.  The rear fans are either really hard to get or very expensive.  The
good news is that they hold up really well so good used, is usually a good
option.  I have a couple of these here if you need one.
