While we have thousands of years of cultural belief that mind and body are distinct, I'm not aware of any scientific evidence for that. And there is a lot of evidence that the mind is directly dependent on the state of the body--change the body (drugs, injury, etc) and inevitably the state of mind changes too.
So I don't know of any reason to think that it's even possible to separate a mind from a body, let alone move one to a new one.
