This response doesn't specifically answer the original question, but it is a similar use-case that I found which may help someone else. If you are searching for a newline character with other text and you want your replace to keep the newline character, here's one way you can do it.

Replace: $1

It would be nice if google allowed regex in the replace field, but this might help someone if the newline character is part of the search parameters and needs to be included in the replace portion.
