The GT.M side of it is simple: it's trivially easy to export the
routines and database from GT.M: use ^%RO to export the routines and
mupip extract to export the globals (remember to use the ZWR format).
The routines are exported in a MUMPS standard format that all MUMPS
implementations handle.  A simple 2 line M program can import the
exported global variables into any standard MUMPS implementation.

However, I don't know what it takes to reconfigure VistA once it is
imported into Cache - at least ^ZTMGRSET I would guess, but you may also
have to play with things like the NULL device.

Also, any shell scripts would need to be recreated (e.g., presumably the
way to deploy a CPRS GUI server under Cache is not the same as for
GT.M).  Cache on Windows would presumably be more work than Cache on
Linux.
