It's possible but very expensive.
You'll need new front light assemblies, new front bumper & grill, new bonnet and new front fenders. That's just for the front, you'll need new rear light assemblies and boot trim as well. There were a number of changes in the interior too, with a different screen interface, different trims and different buttons. And there are bound to be other things I have missed.
Unless you can source most or all of these parts cheaply and do much of the work yourself it's not really a viable proposition.

The interior electronics may not even be possible. The front end is what most would want to change over. If you found decent salvage yard parts for the front end You would probably still end up paying close to $10k. It's probably worth trading the car in for a 2012 at that point.

Have you considered something like this? Might be more cost effective.

If you just want to make the headlights look more like the 2012-2015's, these might be what you're looking for:
