Yes. Copy your config files into the import dir and run an apply config. Note that things in the hosts/services need to exist before importing. For example, if a service is applied to a host, the host should be imported first. Similarly, if a host has contact attached, the contact should be imported first.

Locate the perfdata dir and scp the contents to the new host.
