They can. However, DPLforum is more like talk pages where everyone edits the same page and potentially each others' content. In comparison Forum/Discussions is post-based where each user can edit only their own content. You can migrate Forum content to DPLforum if you want but Fandom won't help you do it.

To that end, maybe I can finally get an answer to a question I asked a long while ago. Once the Forum content has been migrated, will the pages where the content is stored be deleted or will they be left intact? Even if they are deleted, will they remain accessible as deleted revisions?

I ask because this potentially has huge consequences for wikis wanting to move to DPLforum. If the original content is truly erased from the wiki, then they need to at least save it all before the conversion. If, however, the content is still accessible afterwards (either via deleted revisions or the continued existence of the pages themselves), then wikis can take their time because they can always retrieve the old content at a later date.
