Yes of course! Just install the newest hardware appliance ISO: www.sophos.com/.../utm-downloads.aspx 
 
You can install it from a USB stick, I wrote an instruction for this: http://networkguy.de/?p=728 
 
XG appliance = SG appliance 
It's only a lable

The hardware is identical but there is no official way to migrate SFOS licenses into UTM licenses and the config migration later this year will only work from UTM9 to SFOS. Please tell your customers to use the 30 day evaluation period to test the new product.

Hi There, 
 You can't install UTM on XG hardware. It's not a licensing limitation, when you try and install UTM on the XG the install terminates once it realises you're trying to install UTM on XG series hardware. 
 So purchase SG hardware, then you can migrate your license or roll back to UTM if necessary. 
 Cheers, 
 Ben
