"I have a pair of buckets that were in a Blazer. Can I take off the passenger side seat brackets and bolt in the same place the truck style seat bracket?".

Short answer is no with caveats. Yes, the Blazer seats can be installed but they are different than the truck seats because they fold forward. The passenger truck seat, from the factory, is not adjustable. If you were using the truck seat on the passenger side I believe you can use one of the original bolt holes that retained the bench seat. I Sounds like the Blazer seat may use different bolt pattern. The other three holes need to be re-drilled. The floors for the bucket seats was different than the bench seat floor. The bench floor is missing the reinforcement under the floor for the seats. This is important if you ever get in an accident. I would install them but expect it to be a PITA to get them installed in the correct location. A board member sells the lower floor reinforcements you will require if you duplicate the factory set up.
Cheers
