It has a locker, in the form of a solid axle in back, one side cant turn faster than the other.

Well, there would probably be alot of problems to overcome. Biggest one would be the motor has got to go, and a motor off a 4x4 would need to be fit in somehow. The recon motor has no way of getting power forward, out the motor case, and to a shaft to drive a differential. In the long run, youd spend all kinds of money, which you would never recover, when you finally sell it.
Its much cheaper to sell what you have and get what you want.
To answer your question...ya its possible, but not practicle.
