Using ubiboot it should work, even as the kernel is not the same. Of course both devices have to be in open mode before starting.
1.) install ubiboot on both devices
2.) boot to maintanance console on the source device. when partitions are exported, archive the content with tar (dd is not needed, as the filesystem image need not be byte-to-byte complement, and tar archive gives you a lot smaller file than dd dump)
3.) boot to maintanance console on the target device. when partitions are exported, restore the archives taken from source device
4.) copy the kernel you use on the source device to the mmcblk0p2:/boot/ directory, and copy the modules to mmcblk0p2:/lib/modules/kernelname/ directory
5.) you should be done
Caveats:
I have not tried this myself, so even as it should work there might be some problems, like the firmware on the device. For example, I have no idea what happens if CMT is from a newer PR and runtime SW is from an older PR...?
