It's certainly possible -- my crazy jerryrig of scripts could -- and did -- do that. (After all, I was importing old threads and posts while people were using the new board already.) It all depends on how you're managing the import of your old data to the new board, but if it involves simple SQL inserts, you're fine. Inserts won't remove anything that's already in the DB, they'll just add to it. (If, on the other hand, your transfer revolves around dropping and recreating tables, or deleting contents out right, you'll need to rethink what you're doing.)
