Definitely yes, the base (big black plastic part) has the same pivot locations between the 9x6 and 9x7. The difference is always in the shifter itself.
The bases are a little different, the 9x7 has an additional screw-down point for something in the 9x7 console, but it doesn't interfere with anything on the 9x6.

Just to avoid confusion, I'll state again, there is a stock 9x7 shifter and a 9x7 short shifter, two different assemblies.
The 9x7 comes stock with only a slightly shorter shifter than the stock 9x6. It's about half way between the B&M and the stock 9x6. If you put a B&M in the 9x7, you will definitely get shorter shifts.
The EVO extension probably works with the 9x7 too, but you'd have to ask them, I don't know how long it is. By lengthening the lever arm at the bottom of the shifter, it shortens throws.
