I bought a repro of Final Fantasy V that should be here in a few days, and have the opportunity to pick up a complete Japanese Final Fantasy V. I was thinking of switching the pcb's so I can just put the SNES chip in a original Final Fantasy V Super Famicom shell to have a complete looking game. Is this possible? If so will I need to do any cutting in the cart?

If not will a SNES game fit in a Super Famicom game box with the plastic holder in it?

Try it, even with original boards it is impossible to guess, the boards came in many different types and the shells were molded for the board type they were designed for, worst case scenario, get a dremel and grind as needed and glue if needed.

The pcb's inside a snes and super fami are the same so yes you can swap them.
