Yes, it is possible . I recommend a low profile cooler something like the Noctua NH-L9x65, I would just replace the fan with the original one that has an RPM of 4000.
@Vanadiel That is not my liquid cooled R13 in the above photo, and too much time has passed for me to recall to whom to attribute credit. I think the 240mm model you linked is correct. I don't think a 280mm radiator would fit. I don't particularly like the way the tubes come straight out of the pump housing, but there is room in the R13 to make the turn. Interestingly, it has a built-in VRM fan, which I have not seen in other AIO models.
@VinodhR It looks like from the instruction manual that the "standoffs" are created from the backplate mounting screws, O-rings, and spacer nut B for LGA1700 on the bequiet! dark rock pro 4 linked..
@ProfessorW00d I am thinking of maybe throwing in an EK Nucleus 240 AIO on my non-Alienware system. Although I doubt it will make a difference large enough to bother compared to my NH-U12S under normal workloads.
@Vanadiel That looks like a nice one . . . much better engineering on the tubes. If I recall you are in a Lian Li with good air flow, so your Noctua cooler should be a good performer and quiet. Interesting that EKWB does not make a 280mm AIO version . . . 36% more surface area than the 240mm.

@VinodhR The professor used an Arctic Liquid cooler, I am assuming a liquid freezer II 240 AIO:Arctic
Just double check with him on the model number as they do have different models.
