In RHEL, can you associate the GID of an AD group with the GID of a local group?

I have a Windows Active Directory system and the GID of group X is 1745005454. The RHEL machines are AD joined using realm and SSSD authenticated, and when you do an id username it will show that that user is in group X of 1745005454. However, several different environments exist and are not connected to each other and have this similar setup and the GID on each environment for group X is different. This causes issues on the RHEL systems on all environments where there are local group X's all with the consistent GID of 10001 and scripts being executed that look for the 10001 GID in order to run. There are no local users (except for root and local admin accounts), and I can't add the AD user to the local group obviously. I can't change the GID of the AD group X to the needed 10001, so the question is.... can I configure RHEL to see the incoming group X GID 1745005454 (or whatever) and make it associate/alias to the local GID 10001 for group X and being equivalent?
