Back and Forth Forever
It CAN be done. Anything can be modified, but there are several reasons why you wouldn't want to. If you could afford the time and money it probably takes to do this, then you more than likely wouldn't have bought a Civic.

Beware of following "Mirror-Guy" analogy:

Much like adding the Canadian heated turn signal mirrors on an American sedan. Sure, it could be done, but the cost and effort put forth is probably not worth it.

Edit: It appears the driver's door wiring harness is only about $30. Without any further investigation, the cost might actually not be that much. However, the driver's door has a regulator that will roll the window back down if it senses an intrusion (arm, finger, head). The passenger side doesn't. So, there's that small safety issue. Aside from that, I'd say the relay used for the auto up/down could be switched to the passenger side for just a little under $50 and a few (wo)man hours.

So, who's going to try this?
