I would recommend to:
Check size of mailboxes
Warn big mailbox users by mail
Setup the new mailboxes on cyrus
Transfer the mailbox content with imap append for example
Only then set the quota (some users wont get any new mails since they are
using 20000% of their quota :-), you can decide to generate a temp 4XX error
to keep these mails in queue...)

Yes it is possible, it is the good way to do it i think, never store clear
text passwords.. But you won't be able to do cram-md5 or challenged
authentication...

sample imapd.conf:
sasl_mysql_hostnames: HOST
sasl_mysql_user: USER
sasl_mysql_passwd: PASSWORD
sasl_mysql_database: DATABASE
sasl_mysql_statement: select password from accounts where username = '%u'
sasl_mysql_verbose: true

This is an mta question... I think you will need virtuser table...
