It's been done loads of times. It's easy if you know what your doing. If you don't know much about the conversion do some research first. 
 
Read this aswell, will give you a very good understanding c20xe into corsa b guide.

P.S. lots of people will say "oh its a piece of piss" which will lead you to believe it is actually very simple.. 
 
Relatively speaking it IS SIMPLE but its not just a case of throwing the engine in the hole and doing some soldering

i tihnk 90% of corsa have xe or LETs in now  
 
easiest part is putting the engine in. then its a case of i think 7 wires in drivers foot well. sorting exhaust and running your water pipes.

1/2 a day tops if your good with spanners to get the engine/box in, wired and plumbed. A little longer to get everything else ie shafts, brakes, exhaust + tidy up.
