I think the best option would be to export the private key from
Mailvelope and import it in Thunderbird and vice versa. I can't tell how
to do that in Mailvelope. For Thunderbird/Enigmail, I'd recommend you
study http://enigmail.wiki/Key_Management, specifically the following
sections

* http://enigmail.wiki/Key_Management#Making_a_backup_of_your_key_pair
* http://enigmail.wiki/Key_Management#Importing_an_existing_key_pair
