Yes, this is possible indeed. Actually I verified that the KDE client at one 
point could read the OL files....

The _big_ problem is either writing the MS files (e.g. with tnef encoding) or 
makeing OL capable of parsing the native kolab files.

I put many man hours into this and came to the conclusion that the data models 
simply do _not_ allow for a trivial straight forward mapping.
