Default long to short scale neck

This may sound a little crazy,but is it possible to put a short scale neck on my taylor k24ce I like the guitar but if it was a short scale I think it would really be my dream guitar.

Yep. I've heard people switch necks on bolt-on electrics (like Strats) not knowing this and ending up with a tuning/intonation mess.
