Sell it and buy the accord with the engine that you really want. You will have more time and money in trying to swap it.

If your going to keep the car automatic, and you want a plug and play swap. You should check out the f20b. You can pick them up for around 800 bucks shipped to your house. Almost 100% of the time, unless you specify, they are gong to send you a auto version. This swap will bump you up in hp, and a little in torque. Depending on the model of your accord, your harness my plug directly up if it's a VTEC model. If its not then you with have to wire it up. Good new is the motor with come with a flex plate for auto trans. It will also have the smaller driver side motor mount bracket. Letting you use your stock mounts. This would probably be the cheapest and easiest rout for you. Good luck bro.

You are new to "this" and want to ask for help on if you could do a swap? why not go to a professional shop, ask questions and have them drop a estimate in your lap? If not, you will buy a swap, fuck things up doing the removal, fuck things up trying to install and end up at a shop spending more money then you would have in the first place
