You mean, web sites and databases that are already on the same system as ISPConfig? No! From the installation manual (http://www.ispconfig.org/manual_installation.htm):

Important: ISPConfig is meant to be installed on new Linux installations with no web sites, so if you run a server with hundreds of web sites and need a control panel that can take care of those existing web sites, then ISPConfig is not for you!

wouldn't you be able to import say, a script with an existing mysql db? For example, I create a backup of an existing db from my old webiste, create an archive backup of the html root dir. Then I upload the archive and unzip it in ISPC "web" directory. Finally, I log into phpMyAdmin and import the backup sql file.

Can't you call that importing?

This will always work, but it has nothing to do with ISPConfig. :)
