Mine is a '96 soft top, and I have an aftermarket hard top (I don't know the brand because I got it used off a '91 Sidekick junker that was being stripped). I switch them back and forth, soft top in the summer and hardtop for the winter, but the hard top will not go on unless you remove the soft top bows and the plastic channel around the rear opening because the hard top clips mount to the same screw holes as the top bows, and the rubber seal for the rear half of the top will not fit on the body opening unless the plastic channel is removed.
So, yes, you can switch back and forth, but it is a process that takes some time and effort.
