I did the same. Ask for a solid axle for the width of your needs. The difference being that the axle isn't drilled out for a QR and will be 20-30mm longer so that you can put the nuts outside the frame. Threads and axle materials are the same. The should never be any problems when changing from or to QR.
But then you need to check to make sure it is possible as voidcore has said. A standard axle is basically an M10 fine pitch threaded bar.
