Will the motor from a Dodge Nitro 4.0 RT bolt up to a Dodge Magnum?

2011 Dodge Nitro and 2006 Dodge Magnum. I see the heads and block are identical.

Yes, you should be good. If the mounts are the same and the engine look identical you are okay. To be sure though call a wrecker they have all of that information.
