The main difference between ASP.NET Forms and MVC (except the strict separation of concerns), is where is your code-behind, if any...
The main concerns you have to look for:
1. Time - MVC is not RAD!!!
2. Separation. While in ASP.NET Forms you could bend the rules and mix layers MVC will break under same conditions, and for that the design/develop cycle must be more precise and time consuming...
3. Knowledge of client side technologies... MVC gives you grate control over the final output of rendering, but it can be a burden as you HAVE TO take care for almost every details for your own...
4. OO? Not really. MVC views can not inherit the same way web forms do, so all the idea of master pages and inheritance must be redesigned...

To make it clear - there is no actually anything will stop you from porting your application, but it will be a big challenge and you and your team will have to learn a lot of new things and ways of doing them...

On a personal note: We are in the middle of a similar process. We are merging an ASP.NET Forms and a Win Forms application into a new - modern web application. We are talking about thousands of pages in the final project...
Our final solution is to write our own framework, that enables developing the same way we used to do with Web Forms, but translates old style code to MVC like... So we actually mixing ASP.NET Forms and MVC in a way that still enables RAD development with full OO, but take advantages of the MVC (modern) based development...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
