Dean will go head-to-head with Rovers Return landlord Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) in a pub cricket match in scenes to be aired in August.
Speaking in a statement on Coronation Street's official website, Moorhouse said: "I'm delighted to be treading the cobbles.
"It's always been a dream of mine to appear in the Rovers Return, even though as Dean, landlord of the Flying Horse, I feel like I'm a spy!"
Moorhouse will be filming on the soap prior to taking part in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
