Randy Sloyer answered this pretty completely in: this post -- no, you need another LCD from an HP-27s, or an HP-17B or BII. (... or, of course, another HP-42s.)
Look under "Repairs and Batteries" for my "Pioneer Repairs" article, where you'll find limited coverage of how to swap out the LCD. Post any additional questions here.
Good luck!

Or you could have a pro fix it.
