i think you can because the dump file is a sql file and it is universal for both exception that mysql hasn't subselects. If you havent subselects it should work

Is there a simple way of copying a postgres database to MySQL? I was hoping that postgres's backup 'pg_dump' utility (which dumps a database into a text file in such a format that it can be easily recreated) might be compatible with MySQL's backup and restore facilities. Any advice or web pointers would be greatly appreciated. --Note that this is for my own personal use and not for a company so I'm not looking for expensive commercial software to do this.
