Yes.
how ?
Open your model in 010 editor (https://www.sweetscape.com/download/), with the m2 templates (http://modcraft.io/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=828). Swap the animation IDs in "animationlookup".
If you want to keep the original animations and add the new set of animations, change the "next animation ID" of the attack animation. If it has a ".anim" file attached to it, just rename it.
I haven't tested it with the new combat animations yet because I don't like to retro-port stuff, but did it with other animations and it works just fine.

What you are trying to achieve is not for beginners. Once you know how models work, it's just common sense.
There is no such thing as an animation model as in Unreal Engine. Animations are stored inside the character M2 file, however some of them (mainly emotes) are separated into .anim files, but you have to edit the M2 file to swap the animations. You must rename those files only if the animation has a .anim file attached to it, but that's just the easiest part.

The M2 file of the playable character has the animations inside. Read my posts above, please. I already told you that it is possible and how to do it.
If you don't have a clue about 3D modeling, I suggest you to start browsing the tutorials forum (http://modcraft.io/viewforum.php?f=20) and the wowdev wiki (https://wowdev.wiki/Main_Page).
