Default 88 renix block to 95; stroker w/ HO head?

I have a 1988 renix motor that needs to be rebuilt. My question is would a newer year HO head fit that block and could I stroke it and put it in a 95 XJ? I just don't want to let it go to waste but I do want more get up in the 95 eventually!

Can this be done and, Is it worth it?

Thanks in advance for any/all info!

I try not to worry, does no good. Just looking for some advice before starting on something that would come to a end without an outcome, if you know what I mean. Thanks
