Yes, it's possible. You must buy a compatible Shimano freehub body to do it. It's a little fiddly figuring out how to get the old hub off and the new one on, but overall not too bad. I did this on a set of Campy Zonda wheels.

Yes, mavic makes a shimano compatible freehub for this. About $50 in a LBS. Easy to swap with a 10mm allen and a 5mm allen. be careful with the 2 pawls, they scream "lose Me!"
