I want to take an individual's voice track for a script and use the characteristics of that voice for a different script by the same person. Is this possible with SF?

You could compare the two with spectrum analysis and emulate the spectral content of the source with EQ on the target. But it won't change one voice into another - just the a consistant overall 'feel'.

As someone who voices scripts for a living, I sincerely hope it's impossible!

Possible, but not entirely so in SF. You'd also need the help of a TC Electronics Powercore and a couple of it's plug-ins - Assimilator (which allows you to duplicate the eq of a particular track on another) and Voice Modeler (which allows you to radically change a voice from one type to another - i.e. male to female and other voice characteristics).

However, if you're trying to match the acoustic signature of the actual space and not the vo talent's voice itself, you'd need a convolution reverb processor to do that.
