Not without modification but the e92 m3 seats will bolt in and are nicer. What is the problem with the 1M seats? If it's the high seating position where you feel like there is pressure on the back of your legs try the manual seats from a no nav 1M or a 128i or 135i. The manual seats can go down about 1 3/8" lower than the power seats and are a little lighter. I found the position to not be as good for those than the manual seats and two weeks ago I test drove a 128i with power seats and it reminded me how that small height adjustment made for a more comfortable position.

I have seen the e92 M3 seats in 135ii and thy are a bit nicer than ours but the manual vs electric thing applies to those too. Just find a manual seat 128i or 135i and see if the height makes it more comfortable. Otherwise look for a set of e92 M3 seats you try out or you might be able to fabricate some way fit the M4 seats but that seat weighs a lot and you don't want it or come loose in an accident.
