Can I use 2016 ATS transmission's computer on the car of 2017? And then crack it

First you need to determine if the parts numbers of the TCM's between the two model years are the same or a supersession (newer). A GM dealer parts department could tell you that from the parts manual. I would ask HP Tuners directly. Search under VIN swapping. It appears possible.

2016 ATS-V uses T87 TCM. 2017 and 2018 ATS-V use T87A TCM. I believe HP Tuners will crack the T87A for you.
2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (733 whp)
2022 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing (716 whp), 10.750 @ 134.77 mph
2016 Cadillac ATS-Vs (eleven ATS-Vs in the 9s)
2008 Pontiac G8 (first G8 in the 10s), 10.727 @ 129.87 mph
2000 Bonneville SSEi (first 3800 Bonneville in the 10s), 10.711 @ 125.71 mph
1999 Grand Prix GT (first 3800 FWD in the 8s), 8.902 @ 154.90 mph
1998 Firebird (first 3800 RWD in the 8s), 843 whp, 8.991 @ 152.12 mph
1998 Grand Prix GTP (first 3800 FWD in the 10s), 9.499 @ 145.13 mph
Yes, you can, and you don't need to "crack" or "unlock" it because the 2016 T87 is not secured like the 2017+ T87A is. However, if you swap in a different TCM you will have to somehow code the solenoid characteristics for your particular transmission in it. Not sure how you would do that...
