Legally with Friction and Support kind of. If you cross over to the Grey area
while keeping it LEGO. There are several ways.
Its clear several people have pointed out the obvious ones so I won't rehash
them.
#1 If Friction and Support isn't that much of an issue use a short piece
of Pneumatic hose or soft axle. roughly around 5-6 studs long is probably the
best way to go. as long as there is hollow space which I believe there is.. I
do not recall there being any webbing or the throat is deep enough for some length
of tubing.
#2 While some go off as Dirty or Illegal. I have a Bin full of Broken pieces.
Sometimes the best piece is a recycled/modified piece. I have in a pinch razor
knifed studs to make male to male pieces. While in this decade we can find pieces
to get us there or close; one of my all time favorite mods to use on busted pieces
for these type of connections if space allows it was the headlight side of this
piece.

need to be the older ones with thin flange. new ones are much wider.
Interesting. A soft axle might do the trick if it was cut to the exact length
required to have some 'grip' but it will still be an illegal technique
that LEGO never would use.
Thanks anyway, appreciate your thoughts!

You might try looking at SNOT techniques. Brick tolerances vary, so there might
be something you could get away with, the only trick is finding a part with appropriate
tolerances and length to fit inside:
