Can the MX250 failover to a MX100?

[GFrazier]

Got a situation:

Client site originally had a MX100. They setup a secondary location with a MX250. They are consolidating back to the original location and want to use both firewalls for redundancy. I want to use the MX250 as the primary. Can the MX250 failover to a MX100?

That would not be possible:

The secondary MX must be the same MX model as the primary. Warm spare functionality is not supported between different MX models (e.g. MX80 & MX100).
