Can I move my disabled iPod's logic board to a new iPod

So i have an old ipod touch gen 5 that ive had disabled for roughly 2 or 3 years because i forgot the password and since im not smart i kept trying till it was disabled. I dont think ive done a backup on it so i dont wanna use itunes to unlock it as id lose all the data that im trying to recover in the first place. So i was wondering, since my sister also has a gen 5, could i get somebody to take out the board on my ipod and put it in hers? If so, would the ipod still be disabled or would i be able to enter it again? All i want are my files cause they have serious emotional value to me. So in the case it works id just move all the files from the ipod into my computer and call it a day, thanks a lot in advance :D
