Can I use a vintage K-mount lens on a Canon 5D Mark ii full frame body? Which adapter to use?

Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible to use this lens, Rokunar V-HQ Macro MC 90 mm f/ 2.5 Lens with a full frame camera body like the canon 5D Mark ii?
I am seeing conflicting things about using a vintage lens like this with a full frame sensor. Basically, some people are saying that the mirror will hit the lens when using an improper adapter. 

Is this true? Which adapter can I use to achieve this setup?

 

My goal is to use this gear for DSLR scanning. I already own this specific lens, but am looking at purchasing a Canon 5D Mii for it's sensor and resolution. 
If this setup is not ideal, what would be another affordable option for a camera body with similar specs? 

Thank you
