You could probably put a 2003 Vibe snout on a 2005+ or vice versa provided all of the mounting points were unchanged, that's about it.

it would look like (removed), but you could probably fit a matrix front end on there with a bit of work.

Anything can be done with $$$$ and a good body shop. As was said, the front ends are interchangeable from 03-05 at least and most likely 06 as well. As far as the Matrix goes, I think the mounting points are different, but I'm sure one or the other could be easily altered to fit.
