The disk format should be fine but the VM may not work you didn't say what kind of VM it is - for example is it KVM/Xen/etc VMware uses different emulated hardware and different drivers so your mileage my vary.
This particular test was a linux Ubuntu server built this weekend via virt-manager. The goal is to be able to build a disk with the tools I have in linux and ship it to someone who is running a current licensed ESX version. I had the impression that libvirt could handle a vmdk from a VMware server; but can it go the other way?
