If your talking stepside then here's a link that discusses the interchangeability between the different series.

If you are talking about the rear end the answer is no.

Re: help!help!

Why would you want to go from a truck 12 bolt to an older differential that is getting more difficult to get parts for and that most likely has a lower gear than your 12 bolt? The '59 Eaton HO32/33 will be setup for leaf springs. Your '63 should have trailing arms and coil springs.
