I'd like to move my ZM configuration to a different machine. Is this possible?

Sure just backup the mysql database and restore it to the new machine.
If the new machine is not running an identical version distro, then you must manually verify the values under Options->Paths are correct for the new machine.

Backup

service zoneminder stop
mysqldump -uroot -p zm > zm.sql
service zoneminder start

Restore

service zoneminder stop
mysql -uroot -p zm < zm.sql
service zoneminder start
