I'd expect the voltmeter will work perfectly. System voltage is system voltage, nothing fancy there. The oil pressure gauge I would think would work fine as well, since they're all VDO senders and probably have the same internal parts. I'm sure the junkyard parts are cheap enough to try it and see how it goes. As for the oil temp, I'd guess you probably need the Volvo (VDO) oil temp sender/drainplug unit to get a correct reading. I have no idea where Audi put theirs on their engine. The gauge wiring and electrical requirements ought to be identical.
In case you weren't sure about it, VDO made all of Volvo's gauges as well. Don't forget to grab mounting feet or hardware from the Audi too, there are some different methods used for gauge mounting.
