At the moment, there is not any clean way to do this. You could run the backup and restore scripts, however this will bring in all other settings with it. The user data is stored within a postgres database, and theoretically could be dumped and imported into another system, however there is no telling how that could effect other things as well. All in all, I would not suggest it. An alternative, would be to just use contacts instead of users for notifications, provided that is what you are trying to achieve.
