would any other 4 pots be able to make use of the m3 s14 individual throttle body setup and intake/fuel rail.
if you had management of course.
or would it be impossible to line up on the different heads?

Pretty sure TimS has pissed about with these and got them to line up on a 318 is. A fair bit of hard grafting is involved though.

Not easily done mate. It's a pain mating them up to the head etc.....
If you have a 318 iS then you could have a go at what tim s has tried in this thread

There was a thread that kicked it all off but i can't find it.
Basically He's used E36 M3 ITBs (only 2 pairs, not all three) because the port shape on them is virtually the same as the iS head. It just takes a little fiddling with the mounting holes to get them bolted directly onto the head. But after that you still have to get the throttle linkage, fuel rail and throttle position switch sorted.
Once that's sorted you're into engine management territory. Basically you need a new ECU setup (megasquirt, emerald etc).
What engine are you planning to put ITB's on??
