Back in an old WD issue, around 178-230 I believe, there was a chapter approved section on using warriors of other armies as crewman for the catapult with their own list of rules for the crew and restrictions on the upgrades that can be taken. For example: Easterline crewman (Warriors w/ swords) could use the Mordor Siege Bow and then take flaming ammunition, Siege veterans, or reinforced construction. There were even rules for Mordor Uruk-hai siege bows.

Would old Chapter Approved stuff still be "okay" to use in the new edition, let alone the last one?

To be honest, I'm not really sure if it would be. The rules are quite old and it probably wouldn't be fly with tournament players. That being said, why not try it for friendly games?

yup, probably wouldn't get away with it in a serious game, but if you ask nicely you might get it in a friendly

What I figured. Thanks for the second (And third) opinions!
