yes/no.   You would need to get rid of the USB connector PCB and wire a USB cable to the connector that attaches to the main KB.  You would also need to do something about the cable gland/strain relief.  Also without seeing under the keyboard PCB I don't know if there are supports similar to the plastic case or if Vortex is just relying on the upper/lower edges of the plate.  If there are supports you'd have to get rid of the one around F7/F8/8/9.  Might also have issues around the one near capslock.
