Yes.

Yes.  You need to use the import functionality.  I honestly don't
remember the details, but let me search the list (because I knew at
one point).

Ah, here it is:

    After downloading it, get the data file

    http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/hobbies/lojban/flashcards/big_list_supermemo_win.txt

    and save it to your hard drive as "memo.txt" (because the old
    version doesn't like long file names).  Then run SuperMemo,
    create a new database, choose Options -> Go Professional and
    then Tools -> Import Text and tell it to import memo.txt.  From
    there on you should be good to go, aside from the obscure and
    sometimes bizarre user interface .o'ocu'i

I'll put that on my page.
