Yes.

If the same VMware virtual platform is to be used before and after the move, all you need to do is:
  1. Stop the Salt virtual machine.
  2. Copy the Salt virtual machine's file structure to the new location.
  3. Start the Salt virtual machine using a similar VMware virtual platform in a new location.
If you want to move the Salt virtual machine from one VMware virtual platform to another (for example, from VMware Player to VMware vSphere) you may need to use a VMware conversion utility. For details, see product documentation for the VMware infrastructure concerned.
