But IMAP is not about downloading locally. It is about managing the mails on
the server. This is why it is called Access (Internet Message Access
Protocol)
You can actually use both clients with same effect.

Regarding your original question
"Are there any guides or tips and tricks for planning a migration from 
Thunderbird to KMail? The wiki did not have anything."

The clients can use different protocols and support different type of mail
box formats.

So if presumably you are useing IMAP, you must configure KMail and this will
work.
Pay attention to set Trash and other folders after setting up the account.

If you are using POP or some other protocol, use mbox to export and when
importing in KMail use Maildir. In this case you must also configure KMail
to use POP
