Yes it is possible to swap a c32. The only problem is you'll have 6 gears for reverse and one gear for forward

The motor spins the wrong way, it would take considerable effort to make it work and BIG $$$$$$

No. It can't be done. There are a lot of reasons, but some big ones would be

1.) The transmission for the NSX motor is mounted sideways in the chassis, whereas the S2000's is mounted in-line with the transmission tunnel.

2.) I think that the crank spins the opposite direction of the S2000's so if you did fabricate a transmission that would work, you'd have to make a new driveline and differential to avoid having 6 reverse gears.
