Move HBA and array to new server

I'm trying to figure out if it would be possible to move a HBA to a new server along with the disk in the event of a hardware failure.

I want to be able to recover from a hardware failure quickly. We currently have a DL380 Gen 9 with a Smart HBA H241 connected to a D3600 enclousure with about 16 disks. The disks are all in one volume and the OS is on a different volume with onboard drives. It's running Hyper-V with a bunch of VMs.

What I'd like to do is have a spare server and if the first one dies then transfer the HBA and disk shelf to the new one and just register the VM's then start them up.

I know the better way would be to have a SAN and create a cluster to have some redundancy but we don't have enough money at the moment to do that.
