Yes, its been done a fair few times into VR/VS commodores. There are companys (such as CastleMaine Rodshop) who sell off the shelf engine mounts for LS engines to mount in VR/VS for around $250-$300 from memory.
Check out their site or others like them, i'd imagine there are a fair few shops in Vic who do that kind of thing aswell.

Be careful what any one tells you , these LS1's are Canadian and the cars were built in Australia , these Commodores "are not" built in Japan !!!

Take care and make sure that the one that will be handling the conversion has done it before. You cannot afford to miss...
