The current answer is no. This is because the Google Edition is based of the i9505 hardware. The only 'Google Edition' ROM contains proprietary drivers, libraries, etc that are specific to i9505 hardware.

Sorry but I had to post this here instead of the dedicated GPE forum as I am a newer member and could not post in the development section yet. I have a question about the compatibility of some of the more popular roms with the Google play edition of the S4. I currently own the AT&T variant of the S4 and just purchased the GPE as I am sick of not being able to flash Paranoid on my device due to the locked bootloader. When I purchased the GPE I was under the impression that with the unlocked bootloader I would be able to flash whatever I wanted on the device but from the research that I have done it seems like there is not a lot of support for the GPE and therefore only a few roms out there.
I was trying to find out if it will be difficult to get one of the carrier versions of even PA 3.99 to run on the GPE S4 with minimal changes hopefully just to the update script? Please forgive this post residing here but I have read through all of the threads on the i9505g and haven't really come across good answers. I don't know if I should keep the GPE if there is not a lot of rom support as that is my main reason for purchasing it being that I already have the locked carrier version.
Thanks guys ...
Just in case anyone was in the same situation as me ... I went ahead and flashed the nightly CM 11 for the international version and it worked. I have been using for a day now and have not had any issues. Pretty happy !
Hi. Is it better to purchase an i337 with the old unlockable boot loader or the i9505G ( google play edition). The reason I ask, is because it "appears" as though there are more custom ROM's available for the i337 than there are for the i9505G.
Thanks,
Mike

Yes more of the first than the I9505G
But maybe more custom rom I9505 not the google edition

NO You can't. i9505 and i9500 are different phones with different processors, you can't install a i9505 ROM on your i9500, you have to look for special versions built fo the i9500
can some please direct me to this,, mine is international version
truly sorry if this question is redundant
