No the tail gate will not fit, they are different
On 2000 Dakota Sport you lower the tailgate and there are 2 Phillips head screws that you remove and the whole tail light module comes out. You can then remove the bulb socket and replace the bulb. On my 2002 Dakota Quad Cab there are 2 torx screws.
The tailgate on a 2004 Dodge Ram pickup can be removed by removing the gate from the hinges holding it in place. Open the tailgate halfway and remove the slotted hinge from each side while holding the gate up. Then open the tailgate all the way and slide the tailgate off.
How do I get to the flywheel bolts on a 98 dodge dakota to remove a transmission
Look under the left side and unplug the taillight connector. On the upper end of each support cable push tab and release cable. Remove bottom right side of tailgate by pulling it toward you. It is slotted and will pull out when the tailgate is at the correct angle. Once that is released slide the tailgate to the right to release the left side. One strong person can do this but two is makes it eaiser. Be careful it is heavy.

On 2000 Dakota Sport you lower the tailgate and there are 2 Phillips head screws that you remove and the whole tail light module comes out. I don't think you can replace a single lens, you have to pay for a whole new module.
Not legally.
You have to pull it out.
