Is a 12v D 14 starter mechanically compatible with a CA. I'd like to change it out for the purpose of having a 12v starter and the use of a solenoid. Thanks

i think the 6v and 12v systems use a different flywheel with a different number of teeth.
12v starter has 9 teeth...... 6v starter has 14 teeth....

why not just have your 6v starter changed to a solenoid stud... and use 12v on it ?

For the B,C & CA tractor you MUST use a 14t  starter drive.
  If you are willing to change the starter drive and re-drill the starter mounting hole in the nose cone to properly  position the starter drive to the flywheel, it could be made to work.
  I would just take the CA starter to a competent rebuilder and have it made into a 12 volt unit with a stud instead of a button.
 You could just use the CA starter as is with 12 volts, however you will probably ruin the ring gear in time. 
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

As Paul said you might have trouble with the 6V starter using 12V on it then again i HAVE A CA with a 6V starter that I know has been cranked by a 12V battery for at least 40 years.

Is adding a stud to the CA starter pretty straightforward or is it more in-depth that I would need to take it to a starter repair shop?

installing the stud is not for beginners.. but if you have a BIG SOLDER IRON and you are familiar with solder techniques, it can be done at home.
