It will fit easily (the 5I24-16's FPGA is about 2x the size of the 5I23 FPGA) > 2) could you help me out with the firmware file? or at least share vhd file > of 5i24 firmware for 7i39 card, so that I could try to add stepgens to it? > The pinout file will be the same for any 72 pin I/O fpga card, so your 5i23 bitfile name might be a clue.
