Not directly. But the personality variables are pretty much identical (just a
change in interface) so all you need to do is load the personality in the
personality editor of CM5000, write down the variables, and create that same
personality in CM8000. Note that it might play quite differently because the
engines are so different....

The Thinking Lines and Visual Thinking windows in CM5000-CM6000 only show the
engine activity of the current engine on the move (if it is a two-engine game)
or the activity of the opponent engine (including pondering activity) if it is a
human vs. comp game.

There is no way to get "Infinite Analysis" in the same way that you can in
CM8000 in any other version of Chessmaster.
