Possible? Yes. But I believe it's illegal to use the models from another game without owning a license for both. And since you're applying for a school I really doubt you'd want to mess up like that.
However, there are plenty of "Zombie" models made by the community (aka free, just ask for permission to the author) for the Source engine (the one HL2 is based upon).

Now I don't know how to mess with the models for games because 3D Schemes are not my area and probably never will be. You can look on google for numerous tutorials on Modeling/Animating/Changing Models for the Source engine (Half-life 2)

Best of luck!

Hey, like macacos2 mentioned, you can't really use L4D models to put into a mod, unless you get models people have made. My alternative is to simply look for a tutorial that makes the zombies in HL2 have no head-crab on them. Then you got standard zombies. I believe it's just simply editing the source code or some sort of modeling. Hope it helps!

The only way legally is if the mod required you to have LFD to play, through having the mod mount that content, but I'm pretty sure HL cannot mount LFD content. As Jazzy said you can just remove the headcrab from the npc. Here is the link to the tutorial on VDC here. Good luck my friend.

As stated above, importing game content into a different game is ILLEGAL. I suggest you don't do it.
