Does anyone know if 2014/2015 COUPE tail lights will fit on a 2012, or is it a different size?
Tail lights interchangeable???

It isn't a direct swap. There wiring changes, connector/socket changes, and mounting points changed. Someone else tried & had to do a ton of fabrication:
"All 4 mounting locations are completely different. The brake light bulb socket is significantly offset for the '14. And there is a 4th bulb. You can see the socket for it on far left side. This is a side blinker. I didn't know about this until the install. So I'll have to find a couple connectors and tap in to the blinker line. We had to create brackets because the '14 bolt posts weren't long enough. The whole socket area that the brake light fits in to is much deeper on the '13. We had to cut out a half circle on the brake light bulb side to accommodate it. And for the posts that weren't long enough, we had to cut out enough metal so a socket could get in there to bolt the posts to the new brackets."
