You could try to do it manually.  It is very error-prone, however.

The idea is to insert cached articles for the target group behind
Gnus' back.  You'll have to use article numbers that aren't used on
the server anymore.  So let's say the first article on the target
server has number 42, then you can insert 41 cached articles.  Just
write the files and add the corresponding data to the .overview and
.agentview files in the directory.

But this is really dangerous.
