If it is a 46RH trans, (which is what you have..... assuming automatic.....) It should work.

No, it will not work. The starter is on the opposite side.

ya the tranny is out of a 1993 jeep with the 5.2l v8 and will be going into a 1995 ram 5.9l v8 the reason that i figured that it would work is the the 5.2 and 5.9 share the same block i think right???

The exterior is the same on both blocks. There are other issues though as the others have pointed out.
