The mag will fit and function,but not lock in.The latches are different on the rifles.I you hold the mag in or duct tape it inyou could probably make it work.
 
I have modified m1a mags to use in an ar10, but never owned an m14 to try and go the other way. Looking at the two it seems to me like it would. The only mods were removing the upper half of the lug on the back and cutting a hole for the ar mag catch. Besides that and the carrier they're identical.

Here's the write up I did on another site. http://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/showthread.php?t=351621

There are a few side by side pics, maybe you'll see the answer there.
