Yes, no issues. But you will have to look hard for a matching spare wheel.

I put Gladiator Mojave wheels on mine as I got a great price with 33" MT on them... had to buy a single for the spare though. Added bonus for me was the offset is a little less at 37mm vs 44mm which moved my wheel out about 1/4" to align with fender better.

When I took my JL Rubicon KO2s off to upgrade to 35s, I put them on my wife's JT Sport. Now she has a good spare to rotate in as well. The shop stated they had to swap the valves with the TPMS sensors as they were not compatible between JL and JT, and then I had to buy an additional sensor since the Gladiator's spare didn't have a sensor to begin with.

I’m not disputing the incompatibility you mentioned, so please take my comment with a grain of salt.

It just seems weird to me that they wouldn’t use the same sensors/receiver system on the JT as the JL. Maybe it’s just a programming change for the different sensors, but why? It would be much less complicated to just use the same software and equipment.

No clue. Your guess would be as good as mine. I think I asked on here somewhere whether they were BS'ing me or not.

Sometime after I bought my 2020 Gladiator, not sure of the exact year, Jeep changed the TPMS sensors. My 2016 JK, 2020 Gladiator, and 2018 JLUR were all compatible with each other. I swapped wheels and tires between all of them and the Jeeps recognized them all.
