still wont have anthing for the rear. nor will you have the front tubes, knuckles, hubs or any brakes. so no, you will still need the other items. At least most of them

You can start a conversion by using the E30M3 struts, but you'll need a lot of other stuff.
Bearings, hubs, ABS rings, brakes, and lower spindles just to get started.
