Partially correct. NG operates at 7"wc vs propane at 11"wc. NG has about 1000 btu/cu ft vs propane at about 2500/cu ft. However a furnace that can run on NG or propane has very close to the same output although propane is usually slightly less output than propane. A NG orifice is much larger than a propane orifice in the same appliance.
To answer the OP's question, you would need to change the orifices as well as either install a NG kit or replace the gas valve. My guess is you won't find the necessary components to convert to NG because the demand isn't there to justify the investment. On that point I could be wrong.
