Default I know this was a joke but.....
What if you already have a 4.2? Would it make it any feasible?

Possible, but expensive.

Default I've found a totaled RS6 so I could pull the engine and tranny but...
what else would go into that? I know it's a big generic question, just dreaming though...

Default Well.. You'd need to relocate the battery, buy a new coolant reservoir, a new radiator/front
clip, possibly a steering rack, and a few other goodies. It would be easier just to transfer the good body panels off of your 4.2, and rebuild that wrecked RS6. Might be cheaper too..
