Can I use both NMM and MO?

Have always used NMM and am just starting to try out MO on a fresh install of Skyrim.  Can I use them both?  In particular, does clicking the globe thing on MO automatically download from Nexus via MO even when I still have NMM?  

 

As well, if I install a mod with NMM, will it show up in MO?  I have a ton of (inactivated) mods on NMM and figure it would be easier to activate them from NMM rather than download them again.  (I'm following the STEP guide, but I think a lot of the suggested mods haven't been updated since I installed 'em via NMM.)

 

Hope that made sense.  Thanks.

Ditch NMM. You should be ok using the NMM importer from MO but I'd do a fresh install. NMM an get nasty in many senses from my experience.

Thanks.  I've heard a lot of good things about MO so I'll probably just take the plunge, and do a fresh install of the mods.  Probably worth it in the long run.
