It's possible, but would require a lot of changes. Radical modifications like that are rarely worth the effort.
In terms of money it'd probably be better to sell your current bike and buy a shaft drive one instead.

Why did us motorcycle makers stay in the 19th century when cars went on to shaft drive?
Your question makes no sense. Yes a drive shaft in a car came in 1898 which was the 19th century but the first drive shaft on a motorcycle of any kind came in 1923 which is the 20th century. So no manufactures US or other had a shaft driven bike in the 19th century. The first 70 or so years that a drive shaft was offed on a motorcycle they had a horrible issue of lifting the back of the motorcycle up when under moderate to heavy acceleration. This caused a traction issue when is not a good issue to have when you only have 2 tires.
