I wouldn't recommend it. It's a little shorter than the Grand Vitara passenger assembly, and will probably pop out if you have a lift with a decent amount of front travel. It just happened to me two days ago. You may be able to use an axle from the 1.8L Suzuki Sidekick Sport, if those are available where you are. Good luck.
Keep in mind, if you have the manual transmission 2.5L, your OEM axle may be a little tougher than the autos, or 2.0L.
