Fit? Most likely yes, but fit so that the bridge lines up correctly so the string/neck shoulder angles are good? That is questionable. That is sure how it is often when mating body and neck from two different guitar models. Itbis doable, but you may have to do some work.

The 2-3/16" Fender heel width is the de-facto standard for bolt-ons. Whether you'll get an exact fit, or have the bolt holes line up, is another. It's not uncommon to shim the neck pocket on an original Strat. I'm not sure if the heel shape on the Affinity is the same as the standard Squier. My friend owns an early US Squier that has a Tele heel and headstock, and it's all original.
