I'm none too picky if they size is a little off since once they are painted and on the board nobody seems to care. I'm definitely watching this one as it progresses.
Overall i'd say you could get away with mixing some of the Z-Cide zombies in with HQ. Though HQ being GW sculpts are a bit "Burly" in comparison. Weapons in particular on Z-Cide sculpts are less "Heroic" in scale, though the minis themselves are good-sized. There are few zombies from the first three seasons of Z-Cide that would really mesh theme-wise however, being that they are "Modern" in design.
That said, some of the larger minis (Some Fatties and most Abominations in particular), could work pretty well as "Boss" types in my opinion, as they have less modern gear on them. Both C-Dogs and Z-Dogs could work as well. The S-3 Crows could also be a neat addition as a new creature type in HQ.
Now, with the impending Z-Cide BP being set in a fantasy setting, I feel that there will be many more options for some unique Boss-types available, not to mention that some of the Heroes/Survivors may be functional as well. Especially as NPCs I think.
But yeah, back to your original question; The scale will be a little different, and the style of the sculpts are VERY different, however considering how much people mix and match minis in HQ now, I'd say it's doable.
