Front Brakes on Rear Axle?

I have a 2019 1ss and I recently bought the Chevy 6 piston performance brake upgrade to replace the 4 pistons that come stock on the 1 SS. However, I was looking at the Z06 earlier and notice that the rear caliper is HUGE and pretty much the same size as the stock 4 piston fronts on the SS. This led me to believe that it might be possible to stick the front calipers on the rear axles on the camaros. Is this actually possible?

A little back story: I recently went out to the track with a fully stock brake setup and experienced brake fade on a 120mph straight. Not fun. I’m going all out on the brakes right now to not have this happen again. I have upgraded the fluid to SRF and I’ve gotten the hawk HP+ pads. Just waiting for the new brake kit to show up now. Any other advice is welcome. I’m new to road courses and definitely looking to make this a real hobby of mine. I’m 100% addicted and my bank account is suffering but it’s all worth it.
