Default motor mounts?

When i got my 68 Firebird it had a sbc bolted in the frame with a 2x4 holding trans up.Since motor has been pulled and rebuilt i have put it back in.I bought a trans crossmember for a 68 camaro for a chevy th350.When installing crossmember engine and trans appear to need to be moved back 1-2 inches for trans mount to line up with crossmember.Research I have done seems to be that I do have right motor mounts,but it looks like if i swap from side to side it might work as mounts appear to kick motor forward a little.It looks like if i swap mounts it will then move motor and trans back.My question I have is,is it possible motor mounts on frame were mounted on wrong side when i got the car.Is it possible to put them on wrong but still bolt to frame?Thanks for any info.Randy.
