Yes, but you'll have to use the type 3 only hockey stick.
I've got a 73 super beetle trans in my 65 Notch that I converted to IRS. Been in there for 15 years now.

Just to slightly expand on this. . .
The type3 trans hockey stick has the dimple that the shift coupler set screw tightens down in, on the bottom of the trans, where a type3 has access. A beetle trans hockey stick has this dimple on the top since it has an access cover under the rear seat. If you don't either use the T-3 hockey stick OR drill another dimple in the right place for use in your T-3, you will have a really REALLY hard time connecting your shift rod coupler to the trans.
