Well.. I would say to be safe.. No. The M18 Pro has some pretty tight quarters and those larger Elites are just a tad longer that combined most likely will either hit the driveshaft or hit the front stop. Possibly you could remove the battery mount system and velcro it in. Possibly.

Just have to have that extra voltage ehh?

If you want extra punch to go with the brushless motor get a Li-Po battery.

I said "If you want extra punch to go with the brushless motor" I didnt say "Get a brushless motor"

Anyways to really see the top speed and power of a brushless motor a Li-Po is the best way to do it. But if you really want Ni-Mh a good place to get them is www.CheapBatteryPacks.com

Your already going to have a handful with a 9200 on 6 cell. Why not learn to drive with it until you need more speed and then look into more power options at that time.

the rc18b and m18 pro are two entirely different vehicles. the m18 pro will feel much faster than the rc18b with similar set-ups.
