Yep its possible.u just need all the parts and time and some electicql work..nothing major tho
-
also may not be the threads but the "bevel" or "bead" they have called out...it looks a lil big and may not allow you to get good thread engagement and then even still it may not "compress" the flange to get a good seal...the AC lines i've designed usuaylly have a flat side toward the flare nut where you have a seal

I just learned about BSPT vs NPT IIRC BSPT was a 1/8-17 and the NPT was 1/8-18...Teflon tape worked but i woudlnt recommend it to anyone else to try
