Actually I’ve been able to do this with KVM VM’s no problem. I guess I forgot to mention that it is an LX branded zone.
I’ve tried renaming the dataset using ZFS rename but it doesn’t allow me to do so due to the zone being configured in zoneadm. I was hoping it would be an easy vmadm update but I guess I’m going to have to go dig into the zonecfg/zoneadm. Thanks for the response!

That'll have a new uuid, obviously. Call that the "sacrificial" vm. - Shut that new vm down with vmadm. - zfs list and find the names of the new sacrificial vm's disks (zvols). Note those names. - zfs destroy those zvols. - zfs rename your "original" zvols to match the new uuid. - now you have a new vm with a new uuid, with the storage cloned from the original.
