Harley parts are pretty interchangeable. I bet it would cost more in parts and labor to make it look like that than it would to just buy one. My suggestion is if you want a bike 'like' that one you should by a used FX springer and start moding it. The X-Bones is an FL springer and would take a few more parts to get there...
But the straight answer to your question would be ye$..

Because that's the CVO Springer with the 240 rear tire I would tell you it'll really cost you. There's a definite rear end swap required. Frame might not jive, etc.
But if you are trying to just go for the look and not necessarily looking for exact match, your best bet is to shop around for a used 2006 FXSTS Springer. The Springer front end will be chrome and the frame won't be color matched either but most of the rest will be a lot closer to the look you are going for. The Cross Bones has a lot of muted, matte silver parts and the rest is blacked out. Nostalgic floor boards vice pegs...the list goes on.
I have a 2006 FXSTS and love it. I highly recommend going for one in whatever configuration you like.

The dealership where I buy all my bikes has that exact bike. It is a 2007 with low miles and they are asking $22,900 or something like that.
Dillon Brothers in Omaha, NE. Go to their website and see for yourself. I promise you can get $1000+ off their asking price.
I promise it will be cheaper to buy that bike than try to convert a Cross Bones (which is the bike I own BTW)
