It can be done and I have seen a few cars that have done it.  Actually we have a member doing it right now!

with the exception of the 70-71 Cuda you will need to replace the tailight panel to do this & than you will need all the matching parts for the tailights themselves

The parts you need to change a 74 to lool like a 71 are not going to be cheap.

I just sold my '70 clone parts on E-bay and made almost $6000.00

'71 parts are more expensive
