My initial response is no. But I am not familiar with all the little differences between the years. I just did a google search and it appears they are different. The older ones are vertical and the newer ones are horizontal. Maybe someone else can give you better info.

Do you mean the bulb size? Lens size?

Bulb size: probably the same 194/168 wedge bulb.

Lens size: I'll bet they're completely different since they're half reflective and the other half for a bulb. Also, they look thinner and a little more squared than the older marker lenses.

That's something I've always wondered. The lenses have a different reflector design molded into them, but the overall shape and size appeared to be the same.
