I've found a set of coilovers I can have from an 850 for free, does anyone know if the could be fitted to my 240 wagon with minimal/moderate modifications?
 
No, they can't. Just look at pics of what a 240 front strut looks like and what an 850 strut looks like. Pay attention to the bottom part.
 
850 has a separate steering knuckle that accommodated a FWD axle. 240 has the hub and strut tube integrated. Pretty far off without some major major fab work. Some other differences that come to mind are the 850 has the steering rack behind the center of the hub, whereas 240 has it in front.

You'd spend 10X + in time/money adapting the 850 coilovers to the 240 as compared to buying or making 240 coilovers
