I moved a site that has multiple millions of visitors a month, doing tens of thousands of orders monthly from a legacy cart system to CI.

We still have legacy code alongside the CI code, with the right management of the htaccess, you can section off parts of the site as you convert it over so that you're not switching it all over at once (which is terrifying if it doesn't work as you'll be scrambling to resolve those issues). There is some "creative" use of the CI views, templates and cache to maintain one set of files between the legacy code and the new CI (since maintaining two sets of views would lead to bad outcomes)

So, very do-able, just do it in sections and move them over one project at a time so you're not overloaded and overwhelmed when things go wrong.
