Router Swap, Can I use config

Router Swap, Can I use config

Model: Archer BE800  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I currently have an Archer AX55 as my main router and recently purchased a BE800 (BE19000).  Can I copy my AX55 config to file and then download it to BE800 as I don't want to have to completely reconfigure the new main router (VPN, stat routes, DMZ, etc.).  Once BE800 is main router, I will then wipe the AX55 and make it an meshed AP slaved to the BE800.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  @GrandNaegus No, every router is different, so one config won't work with another.  Best to setup a new router from scratch, will make for less headaches down the road.

As noted before, can't do it. Back-up might even be signed indicating router/Deco model and wouldn't even load? What I do, grab screen captures of each setting I've changed, and then install the new router, and look at those captures and make the changes to the new units settings.
