If you're taking that route, I recommend looking in to libguestfs to mount the image like you would a disk.

I believe qemu-image can convert between a few different virtualization disk image formats.  Of course that just changes the disk image itself... and not the drivers inside... so if you do convert it (I'd recommend working on a copy)... then you'll probably have to pull the VirtualBox guest addons out... and install the KVM guest stuff... but it shouldn't be that difficult.
