Sadly, not.

Vista to 7 will carry over the registry settings. Win 7 will refuse to do so for XP.

There is a hack that will do it quite easily, but MS warn that problems could arise.

I hacked the Win 7 Beta and RC1 installations on both machines (and had no problems), but did a "wipe and reinstall all" for the release version.
