If the password are salted than no way. unless they are configuered as 7 format than yes we can decrypet the.

If you copy the configuration with the encrypted passwords, the new ASA will be able to use them to continue to authenticate and authorize the users.

You cannot unencrypt them to see or confirm the plaintext user passwords.

Note that for VPN pre-shared keys (PSKs) and SNMP passwords, you can get them with the command
