Yes and No... These are XenServers running as VMs on top of a VMware Host, but they have HVM enabled, so whilst they are 'nested', they believes they are running on real hardware.
I have not tested it on my VirtualBox build yet which is nested and does not have HVM, however the template is registered as not requiring HVM so they should still live migrate.
