I see absolutely no reason why you wouldn't be able to.

It will work. There may be a couple of driver updates needed. The new Lenovo System Update will take care of those -->

Specifically, the R60 used a Broadcom NIC, the T60 had an Intel NIC.
Good luck.

Sorry I wasn't clear, I meant the NIC on the motherboard. The R60's use Broadcom 10/100/1000mb/s, the T60's use Intel 10/100/1000mb/s.
