Sure! You can move pretty much anything you want with a little fab work. You would just need to modify the linkage to operate it.

The clutch operates best if its on the right side of the chassis. Otherwise, because of how the engine tunrs, the belt will fight against your clutch and you wont have as good of tension.

Not if you mirror it I guess, but if you where just to move it from right to left your correct.

Whenever possible, you want clutches and idlers on the slack side of the chain/belt
