Not yet - and I suppose you would have to wait a few months until the migration tools become available. But you can already use MySQL database tools like phpMyAdmin to import/export the data from older VM versions into VM2. Might take a few hours to get it right, but it works. I've done this already a few times for testing VM2.

I thought of migrating it manually, I guess you would just compare columns etc right?...but then again if they have a migration tool you save alot of time.

Yes, once you figured out which tables (aproximately 10) and columns you need, it takes just a few minutes. However, on my first attempt it took me a whole day.

Personally I prefer to use a free MySQL GUI tool named "HeidiSQL" to do this.

Milbo:
The migration tool will be started within the next 4 weeks. there will be one.
